Sadly for more recent years, penalties may also apply unless independent (ie not related to the scheme) tax advice was sought. These can be reduced for “good behaviour”

OK, worse than I guessed. Have the tax avoidance people you used been cited in a thread here already? There might be experience of the scheme here in a thread already open.

You have just a few weeks or months of exposure to the "too good to be true" tax avoidance vehicle?

HMRC Letter - Notice to Provide Information
Experiences from people who've been through the washer....
A couple of years ago I used an umbrella company which offered (in hindsight) too good to be true pay.
I've since moved to a more legitimate umbrella company.
I clearly didn't move fast enough though as I've now had a letter from HMRC - "Notice to Provide Information and Produce Documents".
Has anyone had any experience in dealing with these? I'm guessing its something I have to face up to and address head on, but really have no idea what will happen next, how I'll be expected to repay, what lasting implications it may have.
Grateful of any advice or experience anyone can shed on the matter before I respond to HMRC?
