The article linked earlier in this thread was written before the legislation was published. The legislation which has actually been enacted perhaps might possibly be construed to have more authority than an out of date article from the CIOT. Just possibly.
One would think a real accountant would know that and would actually look at the legislation (I linked it and copied it, it's not hard) rather than simply cite a dated CIOT article.

That real accountants look at and cite the legislation, like I did (though I am not an accountant nor do I, unlike some people, claim to be one), and that there has to be a second wage earner to claim EA. Having a second director does not do it unless the second director is earning a wage.
I really do prefer to be polite when I can, but you do make it difficult sometimes. It's the slapping "Accountant" on your handle, which might make people trust you at first, that gets me when you post such rubbish.Comment

Draft Legislation:This is a draft item of legislation. This draft has since been made as a UK Statutory Instrument: The Employment Allowance (Excluded Companies) Regulations 2016 No. 344Comment

I didn't think someone would cite CIOT against the legislation itself , or I'd have been more precise.Comment

Originally posted by WordIsBond View PostYeah, was lazy on that, sorry . When I googled, it was the draft that came up, so I just went with it.
