HMRC enquiries for EBT schemes through Kinsella Solutions Ltd

[LisaContractorUmbrella]

I have also been advised to contact M J Kerridge, is anybody aware of what his strategy is and grounds for contesting HMRC demands? I believe there are payments involved?

I am also advised that the Phillip Boyle case from last year is a Landmark for HMRC which will all but guarantee their future successes against all ex Kinsella members.

Any views? Which way to go?

If you were looking into taking legal action then IMHO you should be talking to specialist tax counsel rather than an accountant

Passport at the ready!

Kerridge knows the schemes. He's already organised a fighting fund and has sent a couple of statements out. Anything anyone does right now is not going to prevent FN or APN. Any legal fight will be to get APN money back.

I suspect that you need to start saving for January APNs.

I have received Settlement Opportunity. I had 2 queries on different years from 6 and 5 years ago. No assessment received so not sure how much they are going to APN me for! waiting for advisor to get back to me is driving me nuts

Kerridge advised they have spoken to a Tax Chambers, but they will not be formally engage with them.

Are there any groups organised who are considering approaching a Tax Chambers for legal advice ? If so, please can you send me a PM (personal message), as I don't have rights yet.

Admin: Please can you grant me PM rights ?

Thanks

This is a little misleading. Kerridge has not organised a fighting fund that will be available to fight the HMRC using Tax Counsel. The fees being charged are for letters that are being drafted in response to the HMRC.

The Kinsella fighting fund disappeared when they did.

Get proper

Hi Guys,

Anyone interested in getting together as group and defending the case? If we form group of 100 or so, we can hire best tax lawyers in UK

Admin Please can you give me the PM rights?

Regards

I agree. Personally I want as much accurate information as possible before the January deadline so I can make an informed decision.

I don’t have PM rights yet, so if anyone is keen please PM me. Admin, please can I have PM rights ?

It's hard to know if the majority of people who are reading this thread are affected or not, regardless of if you are or are not affected your support in this matter is urgently needed.

What is being proposed in the consultancy document gives HMRC powers that allow them to judge people "guilty until proven innocent" and force money to be paid without any court hearing. Could you imagine if you suddenly got a bill for more money than you could possibly afford, that you would be forced to sell your family home or go bankrupt? If you have children can you imagine how this will affect them, when they have done nothing wrong?

If you can empathise, please please take just 5 mins to help us (final date to respond is the 24th of Feb), we need as many people to object to what is being proposed as possible - the last document (Raising the stakes on Tax Avoidance) only 31 people responded (most of those professional bodies), we need many many more.

The letter NTRT guys have put together can be used a template (or even just sign it and send it in)
