I’m a customer at crunch and had nothing but excellent advice from the team at crunch. I’ve just found this posting from Duane Jackson and now realised why Dennis tried to make a storm in a tea cup over this….Check this out:

One of our earlier commenters made a similar point. The problem is the way Crunch positions this NO-ONE has to file. That of course is untrue.

I’m quite sure you don’t have to complete an SA return for a company director unless they’ve been given a notice to do so by HMRC. A number of clients I’ve acted for had been appointed as directors to their family businesses but drew no salaries from there and did not require P11Ds to be filled in. Most, if not all, were told they were not required to send in an SA100.

@Stuart. Humble apologies for boring you. Just one point to clear up. MY website doesn’t make any reference whatsoever about tax savings of £3-£4k. You seem to have it confused with somebody else’s site. And I can’t see what your wait for the “relevant department” to reply to you has to do with me. Why don’t you ask somebody connected with Crunch?

And I calculate that somebody on £50,000 a year who transfers to a limited company will save £2,800 overall, and still not be in the higher rates of tax. Hope that’s not too tedious.
