I am not aware of a legal way to pay 3.5% income tax other than in cases when income is just over personal allowance.Originally posted by d000hg View PostLike legally being able to pay 3.5% on your income, and legally being able to pay VAT in another EU nation?Comment

Asking for money in order to give tax advice of supposed legal way to reduce tax massively is a good sign it's most likely not legal (or "not working" as HMRC seems to put it).Originally posted by d000hg View PostI'll tell you for £1000.Comment

Just goes to show how much you know AtW. Commissions can no longer be charged on the back of financial advice. If you want financial advice you have to pay for it on a time and materials basisOriginally posted by AtW View PostAsking for money in order to give tax advice of supposed legal way to reduce tax massively is a good sign it's most likely not legal (or "not working" as HMRC seems to put it).Let us not forget EU open doors immigration benefits IT contractors more than anyoneComment

Do I look like a person who needs financial advice?Originally posted by DodgyAgent View PostJust goes to show how much you know AtW. Commissions can no longer be charged on the back of financial advice. If you want financial advice you have to pay for it on a time and materials basis
Fixed cost to get legal opinion is actually ok.
Charging ongoing %-tage of revenue that will have tax reduced due to complex scheme is a clear pointer that it is not a legal (or working) thing to do.Comment

problem is most of the well off choose 3 or tax advice, however as much of the tax is paid by a small minority you don't want to encourage them to leave.Originally posted by AtW View PostTaxpayers have got 4 options:
1) earn more to get more
2) whine about it
3) fook off somewhere else
4) fook with HMRC and get fooked in return
5) get onto benefits ladder
I've chosen combination of #1 and #2.
get rid of 50% of top payers and the rest of us (all levels) need to pay 30% more tax.Comment
