Re: FN-FORUM Tax Return...

Still sorting tax problems from 5 years ago!

Went from self employed to employed, and was taxed at Basic Rate for over 2
years. In the meantime the Inland Revenue continued to send Self Assessment
forms to me, even though I had told them in numerous different ways, and on
numerous different occasions, that I no longer had any other income. I
returned the forms, completed as best I could, and they returned them
because I had not completed the Employed form (a form they had ommitted to
provide in the first place). They then of course slapped fines on me for not
returning the damn things on time!!!

I have now started to follow their complaints procedure to highlight the
incompetence of those working for them, in return for their threatened
bankruptcy action against me. The worst thing about it all is, they owe ME
money!!!!

And now I'm self employed again - what chance have I got?
