    More retrospection : Government plans to charge five-a-side football VAT may extend to retrospective bills stretching back four years - Telegraph

    Comment


      This is nothing like the retrospection applied to us. In our case they changed the law retrospectively. In this case they have just chosen to interpret the existing law retrospectively. Happens quite a lot, e.g. Section 660, residency rules etc.

      It is always open to somebody hit with a demand to take HMRC to a tribunal and argue their case. In this case the law has been clearly written down and has not been changed. Our case is as I have said before completely different.

        However its tainted, thanks to HMRC Im now also cursed as in all likelihood my wife will give up work in a few months.

        So where does that leave me when we will be on one salary while trying to make ends meet with a new son or daughter if we eventually get a big brown envelope and Im bankrupted!? I hear benefits are quite good nowadays!!

        Thanks HMRC, you manage to spoil such a special moment in someones life all because of a tax legacy, your a special bunch, you really are....oh yes and your actions could very easily cost you more in fees and paying for a new families benefits than any money you thought you were going to get out of all this..

        Think I might break the news to Mr Afiriyie, pay him a visit and see how he thinks RBWM will help out a new family if HMRC go to collect.
        Congrats smalldog Children bring such joy, it really does overshadow anything.

                      Thank you for coming forward - I am confident that it will be a significant help to our cause. If anyone else has a similar letter, especially where a claim was made in the year referenced, please come forward.

                      Thank you
