Dont think Chris Collins and Andrew McIntyre work there any more. They were just contractors. So was Derek Taylor and a few others. Claire Palmer was one of the few permanent people there, not sure if she is still there, since there is now no communication at all. About 2 or 3 weeks ago when I was still in contact with them, I was told they are laying off perm staff and getting rid of the contractors one by one. I think they might only be...

There are a few reasons why you may be chosen for an enquiry but the main one is that the Revenues computer believes there is a high risk that you are not declaring the correct profit ie your gross profit rate may be lower than the national average for your industry. It may be that you just get asked a specific question about this anomaly which, if answerd satisfactorally, will be the end of the matter. However, in a lot of cases you will not...

Nurses registration

Nurses can claim for under the flat rate allowance scheme for specialist tools and clothing. This is available at the same rate regardless of the actual expenditure. In most cases for a nurse this could be a uniform however it could just as easily be for something else that they have to maintain, even if this cost is insignificant. If you've got to justify it though saying you're a nurse and you wear a uniform is an easy win. The...

Totally agree everyone should avoid this (unless of course it is the correct code for you). The best way to avoid a BR code, if you do not have a P45, is to fill in a P46 as soon as you start, then provided you can mark either option A or B (which should be everyone who does not have another job or...

The other issue is how long it takes your employer to action the tax code once he receives it. Some have a cut off date for payroll well in advance of payday so if you are unlucky it could be a month later than you are hoping

It's NOT just a change of name, it's a change of ownership. You cannot change the deeds - your father has to do that. (OK you can do the work but he's the one who will have to sign). Costs will be on the Land Registry web site - not that much IIRC. Well under £100.

Assuming the businesses are operated as sole traders or partnerships (not limited companies), then what you draw out is completely irrelevant for tax purposes. Your taxable profits are taxable income less tax-allowable expenses. Private monies introduced and drawings are neither so are completely ignored in your self assessment tax return.

If you file online, then you have until 31st January 2011 to complete the return for FY 2009/10, but it is best to get it over with as soon as possible I think. It is possible there is an earlier deadline if you want HMRC to collect tax owed via your PAYE code.
If you post a return, the deadline is 31st October 2009. Again, you can send the return much earlier than that it you want to.

No the mileage allowance is only for personal car for business use. As it is a rate that was agreed many moons ago for wear and tear of the car/insurance/deprecation etc plus fuel.
therefore you can only claim mileage for the period 06/04 - 09/09

Provided you use the computer just for your business then its likely that the cost can be used to reduce you profits. You claim capital allowances on 'assets' of a business and the basic rule is you can offset 100% of the first £50k spent each year.

I am afraid you come unstuck on both points.

This really only applies if you share your home with someone who pays you rent.

Bearing in mind that any mortgage interest you paid during the period of rental will be an allowable ...

If nothing else, the default situation can be achieved more quickly and easily if there is a will saying it than leaving some poor soul to sort out the intestacy.
And your request to / expectation of your parents to give some to your siblings is totally unenforceable. You really need to think more carefully what you actually want and put that in a will

Your income will reduce by £3240 (12000 miles at 20ppm tax relief at 40% on £2100) however you will be using you own car less so, theortically your fuel bills, repairs, depreciation etc will all fall.
You need to work out how much your car costs to run to see if you are better off.
You should note that a pool car cannot go home with you - it has to be parked at your companies premises ...

There are two main areas - one is where you're simply getting things wrong, i.e. claiming too much VAT by mistake, wrongly thinking some of your sales are VAT free, thinking a worker isn't an employee when they are, claiming what you think are valid expenses which arguably aren't etc. All that kind of thing is basically just a matter of differing opinions.
The area I assume you are meaning ...

the simple answer to this is to add up all your earnings (to date and projected)
subtract, from that total your tax allowance (£6475 ?)
any left over is the amount you will pay tax on.
But for practical purposes if your tax allowance is £6475 that equates to £539 per calendar month (assuming paid monthly) so you will pay tax on any amount over that at a rate of 20%
Any over payment ...
