Hi all,

 

I'm after some advice...

 

I claim wftc as a single person - my husband passed away 3 years ago.

 

When he passed away my husband had his own business of which we were both directors and our acountant filed our annual tax returns etc.

 

After my husband died (he had a pub) i had to change the pub in to my nme in order to keep it going - pubco insisted. I set up a new limited company of which i was the sole director and informed hmrc of the change.

 

Sadly, i found it very difficult to manage after my husband died and hit some pretty rough financial times and decided to give notice on the pub. The limited company was dissolved at the same time. Whilst i did work during this period - too many hours to mention infact, i did not draw much more than £50 per week from the business and this is what i told hmrc for the purpose of tax credits. If anything, i over estimated. The company was dissolved before our fifrst set of accounts were due and therefore no tax / accounts etc were ever submitted.

 

As i took my money as drawings and not as paye i never had a "tax record" of anything.

 

After the company ended i decided to go in to some consultancy work an formed a new company at the end of the year. Payment wise is more and i advised the tax credits people of the increase. Our first accounts for the business are not due until august this year but the tax credit people are asking me for a P60 from period 2016/2017 which i dont have.

 

What do i do - how do i explain this and should i have filed something?? I looked on the internet and it suggests that if you are a director you dont need to do a self assessment if you are not being paid a salary and only take drawings as and when available which is what i am doing.

 

I'm stressing that they will close my claim and make me pay everything for last year back (the lady on the phone said this could happen). I will no way be able to afford that and i can't pay my mortgage without the current award as i'm building the business and only take a minimum amount out of it...

 

Help!

you dont fit into their little box so they invent things so try and make you fit. as long as you can supply some numbers that are true and dont conflict with othe rinformation you have already given them then that is all you can do.

Should you have filed something? only when you were required to so the answer to that would have to be no, not at that time. They cabn ask you to prepare some figures but they cant complain that you obeyed the law as it applied on a particular date
