            It isn't his take home pay that he has an issue with - he's trying to use his wife's spare allowance without impacting his.

            And it's only an issue because he didn't ask his accountant (as he didn't have one) before he set things in motion.

              No but can when they are just tying to guess work arounds without speaking to experts like accountants and trying to fully understand how it works before they ask.. Like Pscont never did...

                  The Director Loan account can go both ways, it may be overdrawn when the director owes the Company money, it may be in credit if the Company owes the Director money or the Director has lent the Company money.

                    Yes but what does that have to do with dividend? You declare and pay the dividend and thats it

                      You declare it - what happens if you don't pay it immediately? the company will have £x in a dividend payment that it owes a director and that money has to be accounted somewhere which would be record as a loan from the director to the company.
