    Well I agree with you. At the time they sold us these schemes they charges us 15% so why do we need to pay 5%? If the intention is to release the loans then this can be done easily. I accept admin fee of £250 per trust but 5% charge have no justification. Also HMRC recent guideline published...

    Even if I settled with HMRC under CLSO1 several years ago, do I still need to pay tax providing I write off the loans? Similarly, if I settled under CLSO2 several months ago in 2018, Do I still need to pay tax? Please note that when I settled with HMRC I settled with 100% of the loans not 95%...

    In engineering, there is a term that is called "confidence level". If something has 95%- 98% confidence level even with 2-5% of not getting the results, still good to go with that. However if % drops to 80% or below then that needs to be mitigated against other options you have which will give...

    Pension contributions can be used to relieve LC19

    I think no you can't. The loan charge is related to you and not your company. Any pension contribution should be from your personal account not company account. If you do want to contribute from your company account for 2019 LC then you've to take dividend and pay appropriate tax on it. I might...

    What is the 2019 Loan Charge?

    I'm not a tax specialist but from common sense point of view, this is incorrect. If you agreed to settle prior to loan charge then that's it. If they (HMRC) still going to tax you for whole loan as part of loan charge and ask for the difference in tax then why are we bothered with settlement...
