Is your business struggling?
Perhaps you are experiencing increased pressure from creditors or maybe there isn’t enough cash to pay the wages – whatever your situation we are experienced in these matters and help you navigate your way to a solution.
Some of the options available to you could include:
Setting up a Time to Pay (TTP) arrangement if you owe money to HMRC – which allows you to repay your tax arrears over a period of up to 12 months. We would open up negotiations and facilitate these discussions on your behalf.
Assessing whether your company’s problems have taken it beyond the point of rescue making the company insolvent and if there is no likelihood of being able to turn the situation around provide you with the support you need to close down the business.
Will HMRC give my company Time to Pay?
If your business is having problems paying its tax bill or arrears you may be able to agree a ‘Time to Pay Arrangement’ with HMRC allowing you to pay your tax in instalments over a longer period. We can help you negotiate such an agreement.
HMRC are flexible (within limits) although basic criteria will need to be met. All taxes can be subject to Time to Pay arrangements but it’s often used for Corporation Tax, VAT and PAYE in relation to companies.
