You need an accountant...but my thoughts are that CT will apply so 19% will be due to HMRC. You could divi out the rest and pay tax on the balance after the tax free allowance. That empties the company bank account and avoids payroll issues.

It's OK just paying himself but there is all the other end of year stuff they may have to consider as well.
I am enormously grateful to all of you for replying, though.
I dont anticipate going back to contracting in the near future. I dont know if I can leave the Ltd company dormant so as to avoid setting up again if needed later down the line. I like contracting for many reasons but my circumstances right now dont suit it.
Thanks again -

How soon do you *need* the money as opposed to want it - there could be tax efficiencies once the whole picture has been established.
I had a perm job that entire year, was made redundant in March, picked up a contract role without a break in employment. No other income.
I'll need to use the cash when I buy a house in a couple of months.

Whatever you do, set aside enough for co. house fees and corporation tax.

What are you thinking - no payroll run so just do one to split it across the months?

Contracted for 1 month only!
Thanks for reading.
I took a contract outside IR35 for 1 month at the end of FY 2020/1. (March 1 - 31).
The payment of £8625 came through to my limited company last month, lovely.
Am now not in that role anymore and wondering what should I do in terms of paying myself in a tax efficient way?
All I have in that FY is the single payment in. Outgoings: I bought a monitor (£100 or so) which I can claim as a legit business expense but thats all.
It seems a bit crazy to employ an accountant to work this out as its literally a single month.
Can any of you fine folks lend a hand and point me in the right direction with it?
Cheers
