Companies House Changes


AFJM78

Recommended Posts

The whole thing had kind of blurred for me to the point where ME is actually Yog's dad and had been employing him without pay for years to the point where they estranged, and Yog's going to return as the long-lost scion of the Eavii dynasty and take over the festival.

 

Or did I miss something?

It has ended well - for now, at least.

If the company books were so complex it took two full days to audit it suggests it wasn't a simple structure. There was possibly some creative tax avoidance that was within the law.

 

I didn't say that the books were complex. Only that they were in good order.  Maybe they weren't just investigating one year's of accounting. I don't have full information on this - it was a long time ago, and I never had full information to begin with.

 

Anyway, I had the call with my brothers last night, and (and I know your going to find this hard to believe DeanoL) but both tax authorities in the UK and Ireland (who are aware of the estate already) are going to be paid in full ie. my dad didn't set up some 'out there' tax evasion type trust etc. 

 

Oh, and I am going to get a fifth of whatever is left over. That has now been confirmed. 

 

 

 

Oh, and I am, apparently, going to get a fifth of what is left over. So, that ticks that box, but there's another factor which may come into play which may sour things a little. waiting for info back on that.

I wouldn't mind a pint of whatever you've just had Quark

 

Anyway, I'm sorry for my input in getting this thread to go off topic. I do use this site, sometimes, like a pressure vessel relief valve for my life.

The ones you refer to would not fit into the group you suggest as how could they get the mortgage in the first place - I did ask but you did not reply to that part.

 

As for the rest if only you knew where I lived you would not have written what you did.

But as said before, we will not agree and as you seem to have turned aggressive I shall now end the discussion as it will get us nowhere.

 

Sorry I thought it was obvious: single people can get mortgages on expensive properties if they earn enough. 

If you live a building with cladding I'd absolutely have said what I did and I'm even more appalled by your viewpoint to be honest. You're actually experiencing the system breaking down and screwing you over, yet you look at other systems and someone points out "yeah but some people get caught in this trap" and your response is "there's not many so the system is fine".

 

This is where the concept of solidarity comes in. Want single parents to stand with you on cladding? Then stand with them on IHT changes.

Glad it worked out well in the end!

I think you may be a bit confused on tax evasion versus tax avoidance. Evasion is illegal, you're right there's no chance your family did that if it was audited. But tax avoidance is using certain financial structures to reduce your tax burden, HMRC aren't looking for that (there's nothing they can do about it if they find it) and what your moral stance on it is varies. The country as a whole don't tend to care when rich oligarchs do it but do care when Jimmy Carr does!

Changes announced in the inheritance tax payable on farming estates. That could explain the changes that started this thread! 
 

back on topic😉😊!  Wait, hold on, a penny off draught cider and beer as well😉.

 

So back to the original post, the changes made were to avoid paying more inheritance tax, or not?

 

It's for some calling the festival hypocritical twats I plan on doing

I'm still trying to work out if this means you're a millionaire now or not!

No, it's not going to mean that. There is, quite rightly, two countries tax authorities who will have their way. More money has gone on UK and Irish solicitors and accountants, and a very large amount was already spent on my mom's care (which I had completely forgotten about - not me mom, but the cost of the care). We looked after her ourselves until we were no longer able, as we couldn't prescribe on the spot medication, which became a necessity.  I currently don't know what the actual value will be, as both tax authorities have to ratify everything, which isn't yet done.

 

I'll make this the last response on the subject so that the thread doesn't totally disintegrate.

Quite possibly. IHT relief on farmland has now been reduced to $1 million.
