MVL - entrepreneurs relief and starting new LTD Company
Ok, When I say forced I mean it was the option between going PAYE or not having any income. The client terminated the contract with my company and offered me a job, take it or leave it.
No chance - HMRC "look through" such scam arrangements and would easily see that you're a controlling entity in the new Ltd. This one is as transparent as it gets.
I'd imagine if you were forced inside 35 then you were inside all along so better you let the Ltd die and avoid being low hanging fruit for HMRC.
I called this situation Re shutting companies without thinking properly last year when we got the raft of questions from short sighted greedy people wanting their chunk of cash but not thinking beyond the end of their noses. People were gonna get caught out and there is no coming back. You MVL so you are done for two years. No fiddles or magic beans for this one. Guess it sorts the contractors out from the rest.

Northernlad, you seem to know everything. What if I collected all the invoices, and sent them all a day after the 2 years?? Wil that do the trick?

Why not just get them to pay straight into your personal bank account. Then after two years open up a company with that money as starting capital? that makes as much sense as your suggestion
