On-shore accounting models

[eek]

Hah, not aggressive enough. You should keep the VAT too :-)

Oh yes the old greg approach.

Personally I would go for get people to join the scheme. Delay payments beyond minimum wages payments as long as possible until £xm is in the account and then pocket the lot before closing the company down....

I wonder if this one involves setting yourself up as a used car dealer.

Or maybe some sort of film financing.

What VAT?

I've received two emails from cwjobs, the most recent one marketing dynamicpartners that promise high take home pay and keep the money in UK, so no offshore stuff.

But it still sounds like a tax avoidance scheme of sorts as you take home 90% rather than the estimated 80% through limited company.

Essentially it sounds like a duck, quacks like a duck, but doesn't seem to be a duck. Anyone got similar marketing emails or are part of schemes that keep money in UK and take home 90%?

Let me see now. Set up in Oct. 2013, sole Director, no accounts filed, Virtual Office address. Shares their sole director with 4 other newly minted Ltd's all in the umbrella business.

There's more but I don't have time to do the digging atm.

Without going into detail there also appear to be links with SmartPay, who have been discussed on here before (back in 2008) and an number of other Umbrella/High retention schemes.

I'm also pretty sure the sole director of this company has very little to do with the running of the business seeing as he appears to be a conceptual artist and son of the chap who actually set up the company.
