RE: FN-FORUM Tax Return...

date posted 17th January 2003 16:36

My "old" accountants forgot to file all my CT200 forms for 3 years and
so secion 419's appeared. It's taken about 3 years to sort it out and
I've finally closed the company (nearly) that had the problems, starting
a new one to trade under as I don't want all the sh!t hanging over me
forever !

It's cost me feckin loads in fines, interest and so on. Not
receommended.

Lots of leasons learnt !

Cheers
Andy

Inland Revenue = evil, evil, evil. My other half conveniently forgot
about returns and any kind of paperwork for 4 years. OK, very naughty,
but he sent through the money he owed in the end, including full payment
of all the fines (v v v expensive and not recommended). Poor accountant
had to try to create the return forms for the missing years, but
understandably it took a while to sort out and they were fining us not
because he hadn't paid the tax but because they didn't have the forms
through. They finally got the arseache with him and slapped a £60 a day
fine per return they were missing. Yes, that's a £240 a day fine. Oddly
enough, the accountant got moving then, but a cautionary tale that it's
not just the money they want from you!
