Via Trade Consultants - Intention to enquire into SA

[Pmc12]

Hey All,

I've just received a letter from HMRC advising that they're intending to enquire into my SA for Year ending 5th April 2015.

They state the following on the letter:

"I understand that you may have participated in arrangements promoted by Via Trade Consultants in the period of my enquiry. My enquiry relates to those arrangements. However, when I look at this aspect I may find that I need to extend my check. If this happens I will let you know."

They then go on to mention the 'Tempted by Ta Avoidance' publication, and that they are looking into arrangements and transactions undertaken as part of the tax avoidance scheme...

Does anyone have any advice on this, or has also received a similar letter?

To my knowledge, this was an umbrella company, not a tax avoidance scheme???

Thanks

Sadly, on the basis that they've been liquidated https://www.endole.co.uk/company/080...onsultants-ltd it's reasonable to assume that they weren't a proper umbrella.

Sorry.

I'm not sure if or how they'll be able to help, but you could always contact Big Group to find out more information http://forums.contractoruk.com/hmrc-...big-group.html

Hey Pmc12

A friend of mine has received the same and it is being dealt with.

If you drop me a PM I am happy to try and help further?
