I just received a HMRC letter from their avoidance support team, the letter states it's in regards to Actinium Dividend Scheme for 1 year and 3 months before I went LTD in 2006/2007.

1973 Nightmare (my experience of a Brexit)

IT Contracting since 1993

IT Contracting since 1993
It's comes to an end! I came over to the London, UK in 1993 from NZ on my big OE, intended to travel around Europe for 2 years and work part time, well 26 years later I am married to an EU citizen (not UK), kids.....and it's sadly coming to an end.
