I'm not advocating Big Group in this thread, I'm not suggesting we join together to form yet another settlement group of any kind.
The vast majority of our groups were formed when tax law was tax law, there was no...
It's never too late apparently, ask HMRC. I suppose in their case though even if it is too late then they just make a new law and hey presto, it isn't too late.
The cats thing I get though, let's see if this thread develops or not...
Have to say I disagree there. I'm not looking to jump ship for settlement, I've happily thrown my eggs in the Big Group basket for that. Maybe no one is interested and everyone wants to just put all this behind them, but there might be others out there who aren't happy with the way this has...
All of the 40,000 affected (and anyone else that might be interested)...
We are all in disparate groups attempting to settle our affairs with an ever aggressive and underhand HMRC.
Whilst the benefit of these groups is unquestionable as individuals, we are only really going to make a...

Without scaremongering, I would hope this doesn't mean all those APNs that have been withdrawn due to "no valid inquiry" are reinstated following a change of law (to allow APN without inquiry) backdated to today with the new APNs dated tomorrow...

Sounds like the HMRC chap was just trying to divert your attention. He would recommend anything that means we'd just pay them whatever.
It has been discussed before and the general feeling is that it wouldn't work, you'd struggle to get...
This is the same public that regularly do deals for cash to get a better price / evade tax. Why hasn't there been more made of this by the politicians? Oh yes, that's right because there are too many people that do that cash in hand stuff and they'd lose too many votes...
