Contractor payroll

[Maya1]

There is no substitute here for:

a. getting advice and

b. organising

You have opening enquiry letters and HMRC will not let go now.

You will have to answer them and deal with the consequences.



Consequences are settle, litigate, discuss with HMRC and then settle or litigate.

Trying to do that without a clear picture of the costs and outcomes is not advisable.

Getting information can be expensive. Organising to pay for that as a group is sensible (and supportive).

One or a group of you need to grasp the challenge.

Advisers can be found via Google or here.

Yes, I am connected with such an adviser, but others are out there.

Hi Webber

Sound advice I would invite anyone who has been contacted by HMRC regarding contractor payroll to contact me as we want to form a support group.

The trust and promoter of scheme is still operating and actively ripping-off more contractors .


I was with them for 2015-16 for which I have received enquiry Section 9A. Not sure how much information I should provide. Would very much appreciate if some one can direct me.
I simply want to avoid Discovery Assessment or COP8 so should I clearly disclose the scheme and try to get settle the outstanding tax?



For 2016-17 I still have to file the Self Assessment so can anyone tell me should I mention the loan amount or should I go with CLSO2 and settle in that.
My worry is even if I put loan amount it is still going to trigger section9A as this company has gone in liquidation hence why HMRC system is picking all the people under this umbrella.

At least with CLSO2 settlement I will get little bit extra time to pay.

Please suggest.

Can anyone provide stories of success in settling with HMRC
through tax specialist and how long it took.

You can do a lot of it yourself. Just ask for a figure, agree to it and pay it.

Talk to WTT - they've probably got the most experience of the schemes and should be able to give you good advice to ensure that your settlement is final.
