My present contract finishes soon, and I'll be back dripping into the war chest / savings. I've requested to have my account place back to inactivity to try and reduce my overheads. However, they've flatly refused to help with JRS whilst this is the case. They won't advise me on how I can do both those tasks myself. Can anyone help explain perhaps? I asked my accountant and they dodged the question altogether.

Originally posted by eek View PostYou buy a service for £x a year that includes complex once a year pieces of work and pay for it in 12 monthly installments. Why should they provide a discount because you aren't currently in contract?Comment

Regardless, the company will still need to make RTI submissions each month whether you have a salary in place in your company or not. Let's assume they'll continue to provide that service, they should submit your furlough figure via RTI.
Separately, you'd need to make a CJRS on HMRC's website. If they won't do that as part of their fee for free, you could always log into HMRC's government gateway account and make the claim yourself each month by the 14th of the following month.Comment

Originally posted by ApeShape View PostYes, it's effectively a reduced fee whilst my business is current inactive (i.e not invoicing or transacting) charged at a 50% discount. Does your firm do similar? Although I'd still need confirmation statements filed, VAT returns / Corp tax (when applicable) processeds. As for self assessment, dunno.Comment
