    CGT or Dividend

    The online Tax Return form simply says I don't need to complete the CGT section because my gain was less than £12,300. And, as it turns out, I didn't get any dividends either during that year so no need to complete the Dividend section either. Also, not having to pay back the child allowance...

    Still thinking I'm someone else? I once recommended someone read William Gibson's Neuromancer only to have it panned by a certain individual on here who bought it at the airport on route to their holiday. Who am I now?

    I am rather glad I missed Brexit on here. All I will say is I was just stunned that morning. Shellshocked. The slugs were numerous and enormous in my garden last year Xog. Considered popping up your way and slinging them over your fence.

    Thanks for the re-welcome. Like all old accounts, I was using the one password and was able to use the username rather than the defunct email address. Thankful for a password manager like LastPass now. I turned to the dark side about 10 years ago but kept a company running for the occasional...

    How dare you! I am my own virtual presence and no one else's. I hark back from the days of ScotsPine and the pre-2005 incarnation of this forum.

    CGT or Dividend

    Thanks for the advice. Let's just say that I have been doing tax returns for over 30 years and this is the first time I have had to consider CGT. As a result, I thought it appropriate to seak advice on here.

    CGT or Dividend

    The company was struck off so it was the final distribution of the retained profits. I am assuming this is the subject of CGT but am not sure what to do since it was a small amount (in relative terms) as far as the tax return is concerned.

    CGT or Dividend

    I closed down my company and received a final dividend of just over £3000 in the 2020/2021 tax year. So when I come to complete my tax return, do I put this last dividend in the same Dividend section that I have used for all previous dividends or am I supposed to use the Capital Gains Tax...

    Debt Collection - Luxembourg

    I have a Luxembourg based client who has yet to settle an invoice after 120 days. Does anyone have any recommendations for debt collection agencies or a firm that can provide advice on how to go about forcing my client's hand? I am now at the point where my next communication with the client...

    Software License

    It turns out that most companies will not touch any software you may provide via the internet unless you have a licensing statement. Can anyone recommend a company that will help you draft a license statement? Obviously, I would prefer not to have to pay an arm and a leg for this service.
