Do we not. I thought that if we wound up a company, we could claim ER - as long as we don't just start up another LtdCo the next day.

I don't know where you're getting your info but you need some education in small Ltd companies!

Or...Get an accountant, ask him. Simples.

Really? Interesting.

My understanding was that it only applied when the money was being actively used for trading.

For Sale, Resale Distressed / Repossessed UK Property - United Kingdom

Buy up for rental or buy up, quick coat of magnolia and hey presto, sell on.
