Am I within the charge to CT or not ?

[Ivor1]

Hi,

Started new ltd, on 27th April 06, and got the form CT41G from IR this weekend, this form asks for company info regarding corp tax. It says I only need to provide the info if 'I am within the charge to CT.

Im not sure if I am within the charge to CT, I dont use the company yet and have no revenue going through it, so I think Im not, BUT the letter from IR says Im in CT from the start of my first accounting period, Im not sure if I am, and if I am how can I change it as when I rang CH they said I couldnt. On the CS reg my company details are,

Status: Active
Date of Incorporation: 27/04/2006

Country of Origin: United Kingdom

Company Type: Private Limited Company
Nature of Business (SIC(03)):
None Supplied

Accounting Reference Date: 30/04
Last Accounts Made Up To: (NO ACCOUNTS FILED)
Next Accounts Due: 27/02/2008
Last Return Made Up To:
Next Return Due: 25/05/2007


Am I in charge to CT ? If so what accounting date do I need to change to bring me out ? Dont fancy paying the £300 plus £60 a day fine. My accountant is not contactable for a bit so cant ask them.

Cheers

1. Fire your accountant and get one who is "available".

2. Don't sweat it. It's a year and a half until you have to pay CT.

3. If in doubt, send the form in anyway.

Send the form asap - saves a lot of heartache.

Don't worry too much about CT. They collect it ~ 9 months after your accounts should have been filed. Just make sure you have the money there then from last year's profits or you're screwed as well.

Thing is I dont have the info they require yet if I am within the charge to CT, PAYE refence and all that. I will probably just send them the letter saying Im not, but think I will be in Aug, based on the info on my company on the CH register do people think Im with CT ?

This is link to the note they sent me, that last section bottom page 1 covers whether you are you are within ct or not

So if I close my company down within a year & a half do I still have to pay CT?
