Hi Guys,
Been lurking on this forum for a while and learned a lot.
I am a LTD company with me as the only employee. I am contracting in UK.
My accountant is not keen on me using the minimum pay with dividends process that seems to be recognised as the most tax / NIC efficient method.
Is he just doing his job?
CHEERS

I remind you that dividends can only be paid out of profits of the company and that some form of management accounts should be prepared to demonstrate that there are sufficient profits. It is not sufficient to simply say I have cash in the bank and so must have sufficient profits to pay a dividend. Any illegal dividends will have to be repaid to the company.
CHEERS
