If a Limited company has 2 salaried directors and their tax etc goes through the payroll do they also need to register for Self Assessment and complete a tax return?

I have been asked to provide a form 4506-T urgently and have NO idea what it is!! Having done a quick search, it seems to be something listed under IRS and therefore US based and is a form authorising copies of previous self-employed tax returns for mortgage purposes. This is exactly the purpose and it i...

Good morning all, I have used the HMRC Basic PAYE tool in the past to double check that payroll calculations are correct (our payroll is outsourced) and forecast salaries for cashflow purposes. As we are not doing the payroll in-house, we do not require a sophisticated system. Now that RTI is in place...

Do I have to order P60 forms from Sage in order to print from Instant Payroll or is there a way around this? One of my clients uses Sage instant and only has one employee so there's no way he needs to buy a pad of 50 forms. Is there a way around this? Thanks Kat

One of my clients (a sole trader) runs a cafe but has decided to sell up due to illness. Am I right in understanding that I treat the sale as a CGT item thus claimiing The ~£10k relief? It has been sold for less than this so I assume there will be no tax on the sale? Thanks in advance John
