I've got my first retail customer on VAT! Sods law she went over the threshold (by £21!!) on the 31st July, so I need to register her pronto. On the retail scheme can we log cash and credit card sales, calculating VAT on a daily basis, and the paypal sales as a single figure on a monthly basis, as we do now? ...

A bit of a sad day today as my first client ceases to be one. He's been with me 9 years (gosh is that how long I've been going?) I've never done a cessation before and just a couple of questions. There is £12k sat in the bank account as at 28th February 2018. I presume I leave that as is? No trading done after t...

This should probably be in the FFS thread but according to my client he can opt out of CIS simply by writing a letter to the contractor. He is a new Ltd Co and he rang me in a panic a couple of weeks ago saying that the contractor was asking him for a UTR No so the Ltd Co could be verified for CIS. He said he hadn't...
