    Keeping track of expenses. What do you use?

    There's a few iphone apps and I would imagine android as well. You can photograph the receipts which might mean that you do not necessarily need a hard copy. Perosnally I dont bother though as I dont expense that much so the admin really doesnt take long. 7 iPhone Expense Tracker Apps

    HMRC Enquiry letters on Loans from EBT and other schemes

    I'd recomend doing so privately with other users of your particular scheme. Certainly the scheme I am with have done so. They must already have a private forum or mailgroup.

    HMRC Enquiry letters on Loans from EBT and other schemes

    I think DonkeyRhubarb rightly pointed out that this would happen earlier in the thread. I think disjointed was the term he used.

    HMRC enquiries for EBT schemes through SANZAR

    I think hes suggesting that just becuase you got a tax bill with interest, it does not mean your appeal has not been accepted. The tax will remain outstanding and gaining interest until the matter is resolved.

    HMRC Enquiry letters on Loans from EBT and other schemes

    Thats an amazing contrast to the 4 specialists i have spoken to who claim HMRC dont currently have the legislation they need to reclaim tax they think they have lost. Dont pay them the £50 yet whatever you do

    HMRC Enquiry letters on Loans from EBT and other schemes

    But, its only tax avoidance if the scheme was not breaking the law. If HMRC challenge the scheme and find that it was never indeed legal, then surely they can legally ask for the unpaid tax.

    HMRC Enquiry letters on Loans from EBT and other schemes

    Surely this cant be true. Seems the HMRC have already accepted this is careless on our part. They've scrambled to get in before the 4 year deadline, why bother doing this if they feel its lawful to back as far as 2002 or whatever.

    Salary amount

    I agree with Northernlad on this. Thats rubbish. Those odds are way out. And i seriously doubt that an extra few hundred pound in tax would make a difference to whether your investigated. However it is always worth paying some NI otherwise the year wont count towards your pension...

    Is going limited worth it if you are inside IR35?

    Furlough is a term often used by banks to describe this scenario where they are told not to come in. It is applied to contractors. I have seen it happen on multiple occasions. Its a cost cutting exercise.

    Is going limited worth it if you are inside IR35?

    Sorry, to make this simple. If you are told to take time off as furlough. Is that an indicator of being inside or outside IR35 as you see it?

    Is going limited worth it if you are inside IR35?

    As stated earlier the guy was talking about forced leave or furlough and I simply answered his question saying it was not a pointer of being outside of IR35 which you seem to be in agreement with and is true. I dont think thats right, speak to QDOS who will tell you MOO is an iffy one these...

    Is going limited worth it if you are inside IR35?

    Right, firstly MOO is these days almost being seen as neutral. i.e. A pass on only this means it is only a very weak pass. My previous posts i was refering to the poster who mentioned that they had been led to believe that because they had been told they had to take 2 weeks off, (some...
