I haven't traded for years, been propping up the Ltd Co with my own money and thinking of closing down my limited company. Been out of work a while and looking to go part time permie (caring for Dad just now).
The Directors loan a/c which I don't fully understand stands at 5 figures (the ltd company owes me that's not me drawing from the company) but I can;t see myself trading in the near to mid future so guess I'll have to suck it up.
There are no outstanding liabilities, no bank account, assets are all depreciated to tulip and I could do with not having to fill in null accounts etc, shuttle returns etc every year
My accountant, who I'm no longer with, notified the HMRC of my intentions to close several months ago.
They filled in the form for me, I signed it and posted it away, regular post. Companies House have not received it, so I'll have to do it myself.
What's involved in closing down a company?
Do I just send in the DS01 form to Companies House and that's it?
What happens after that with Companies House, HMRC etc?
When can I get rid of all accounts and correspondence for the last 7 years? I could really use the space.
