I am not convinced and MyCo is owed a little bit of money by HMRC so for that reason I have been told by the accountant that I need to keep the Company Bank Account (and therefore myCo) open, so I have still filled in an annual return for this year.
The accountant did also advise that
A. if the bank account is left empty for long enough the bank will close the account anyway and
B. if the Companies House returns are not done then Companies House will close the company without me doing anything
What I don't want is for B to happen before A so I am keeping everything open but myCo is not trading and as far as I am aware HMRC know this, the VAT registration has been cancelled, and I have permission to close the company using ESC16.
I don't like the idea of the loose ends left by B above so I will ask about closing the company officially when the time comes.
