sandgrounders Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 I bet you actually owe £42.76p in VAT and the rest is Interest, Penalties and Charges. I'd find a good uk tax adviser if I where you. Good Luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Tim Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 I bet your heart took a leap there.. I did have a similar situation but on a smaller scale I forgot to cancel my NI contributions. I told the tax man and assumed the NI cointributions was also to be cancelled... how wrong I was until I actually told them I no longer lived in the Uk so stop sending me quartley demands to oz!
