IT Contractor - Advis<c>e on paying less tax

[air]

Hi

I currently work through an IT contracting company for a SA company. The contracting house deducts the necessary tax every month before paying me. Would it be worth my while to open a CC and have them pay me dirctly without deducting tax? As per my tax details I am classed as an 'indepedent contractor' but technically I am not since I work fulltime for the SA company. What are my options available to ultimately pay less tax?

Thanks

You have the best tax options right there, going independent means you'll pay more unless you somehow declare "scaly" salaries etc
