    HMRC nudge letter - "Your use of tax avoidance arrangements - an update "

    Thanks for your response LuxCon. Not entirely sure if I have any open years where they opened a discovery.... How would I check? They did come at me in 2016 because i'd used AML for a few weeks in 2011 before setting up my own LTD but I settled with them as was only circa £127 and didn't want to...

    HMRC nudge letter - "Your use of tax avoidance arrangements - an update "

    I just received this letter at the weekend and it's actually the first letter i've received from HMRC on any wrongdoings using Quantum etc and that a case has been opened on me so came as a surprise. Doesn't even say on the letter how much they think I owe, for what years etc. I was only...

    DIY End of Year Accounts

    Thanks for that clarity as I understood there was a 25% temporary tax which I eventually got back. Worrying thing is that when I asked my accountant if this was true they said no but they'd check. Eventually came back and said "oh yeah, you're right". Not only am I not paying interest to a...

    DIY End of Year Accounts

    Thanks Alan. Anyone you would recommend as a year end only service as this would be ideal? I can manage the rest (he says confidently :)), it's the year end accounts I'm a bit nervous about at the moment. Cheers.

    DIY End of Year Accounts

    Thanks for the response eek. If it becomes too much of a hassle then i'll just take the £800+ hit. Think i'll keep looking into it though, if nothing else, at least i'll understand the process a bit more. I thought I had a proper accountant as they have a lot of experience in contractor...

    Not sure he would sleep well himself if he did that.

    Tax Evasion/ Avoidance Question

    Honestly, nothing more than a better understanding of what he had done. He bought when he was very young and didn't know what he was doing. Now, he understands a bit more about the law, he is looking to rectify the situation.
