Hi all Not a question but rather just a moan. I set up a client as a Contractor for the CIS scheme as he wanted to get a sub-contractor in to help him on future job, no problems with this registered in Oct and the client received his PAYE ref and his Acc Office ref numbers 5 days later. I then asked for online a...

Accountant was in last week. Everything is squeaky clean (yay) apart from a couple of very minor, easily correctable human error type entries. He says we keep excellent records. However we (my boss and I) and he are a little concerned about the dreaded MTD. He says that when the time comes if we star...

Good morning all. One of our Ltd Company clients has one salaried director and one full time employee. The employee is on SMP, and an advance was made to cover this by HMRC as the Directors PAYE deductions would not cover the SMP. I have just been advised that the company is to cease trading due to persona...

Hi all Just been thinking about the MTD, it looks like it will start from next year, so going to try and start preparing my clients this year.

Client stayed away in Airbnb accommodation (legitimately - I book them) Can food purchased to cook be claimed as subsistence or is it only takeaway/restaurant meals

Leger · Leger

Arrgh, I knew I couldn't avoid it for ever lol. Airbnb commission as far as I can ascertain is reverse charge, so from what I've gleaned its accounted for in both input and output VAT in the EC boxes. (irish VAT) That just means the two are cancelled out and reading up I can make a claim to HMRC after 30th Se...
