Not sure if this is the right forum for this so apologies!
Been discussing with accountant IR35 strategy and ways to re claim travel expenses lost due to the 24 month rule.
His practice's advice is to close the existing ltd co and form a new one. When the new co is formed, it should also be registered for the VAT FRS which gives an extra 1% 'discount' for the first 12 months.
He also takes the view that seeing as its a new co, it can be argued Im a new employee on its first assignment so would claim travel expenses at the same client as the previous co.
He says there's a chance HMRC may link the two together but seeing as their resources are stretched thinks it unlikely. In any event, if they do what have you lost because you couldnt claim the travel under the old company anyway.
So, I like the sound of this and think the risk is wort it.
I can either get him to register the new co or do it myself through one of the many website.
What are all the things we need for a new ltd co? There's several options on the quick register sites and dont want to chose the wrong one!
