    Dissolving Ltd. company with debts owed to HMRC

    Dissolving Ltd. company with debts owed to HMRC

    Hi, I have a been a product photographer for over 20 years trading for almost all of that as a sole trader. Four years ago I was advised by my accountant to change to being a Ltd. company, making myself and my wife directors, due to paying less tax than being a sole trader (dividends etc.)...
