In my case, and I guess in that of many others, I and my wife have paid PAYE and NI from the outset, over 23 years, and in recent years MyCo has also paid the minimum wage. We don't have written contracts, but verbal contracts. However, the issues will only become clear as and when I'm obliged to close the company. Just to clarify, I'm talking about MyCo paying the redundancies and having such payments offset against corporation tax and not claiming any payments from the state.
