Thank you. I am considering joining Big Group. Don't know if this is a better option than settling directly with HMRC.
Appreciate any thoughts as I am really all at sea here.
Wow thanks all for your advice. A lot of differing opinions.
I am not entirely sure how I would go about working out the exact amount of tax I owe, perhaps this is where I should seek independent advice.
Any recommendations for independent advisors?
hi, I was in a scheme for 2014/15 so I know I will receive a demand to pay at some point. I would much rather just contact HMRC to say look, I was in this scheme, here are my bank statements, what do I owe?
Has anyone else done this? Is it a terrible idea? I just hate being in limbo and would...
Thank you for your reply.
I think I'm in a different boat to many here as this discovery assessment was actually issued totally incorrectly - I was in a scheme but only for 1 year and it wasn't the year they issued it for. Can I not get in touch with HMRC with my bank statements to prove this...

I received a discovery assessment for 2013/14 back in February and appealed it. HMRC confirmed via telephone in March it was postponed. Haven't had a letter yet or anything. Does anyone know what is likely to happen next?
Received a discovery assessment notice at end Feb. Duly sent a letter of appeal. Sent by registered post. It was signed for 2 weeks ago and is still not on the system. Whenever I call they just tell me it probably hasn't got around to being logged yet. But my 30 day notice period is up very...
Thank you - I think I will provide bank statements as for that year they completely prove I wasn't earning what they say I was.
Out of interest why wouldn't you provide the statements? Isn't an APN worse?
Is there any advice anywhere on how to write an appeal letter? I received my assessment of notice but the amount is totally incorrect as I only used a scheme for 2 months in the year it's for.
Should I just write back and tell them this and then wait for them to ask me for bank statements etc?
oh and yes it is a discovery assessment letter but I do not know how they have arrived at the figure they have arrived at.its completely incorrect.
i used the scheme for a full year the year AFTER (and thankfully no more) so am expecting a letter about that too but the first letter isnt right.
