It should be my first port of call but the Accountant has pretty much just "tut tut'd" me and I'm totally mortified that we are in this position. They have already said we need to deal with HMRC ourselves.
I'll keep this thread updated with how we go on.
Thank you for all the help and advice...
I wouldn't be able to live with myself.... I'm wracked with guilt as it is. Guilt for not keeping a closer eye on things, guilt we owe so much - you name it - I'm beating myself up for it.
I should have been more careful, my husband is shit with money, I should have known better.
The CT debt is about £9k (I think) and we are 1 month behind with the VAT. Apparently based on the draft accounts the o/d DL is about £25k - I don't mind telling you that these figures are hugely scary for me.
Thanks - I appreciate the response ;) I think I need to get all my ducks in a row and then call them. Which will involve most of the night sitting at the kitchen table and working out exactly where we stand, what we owe and how to pay it back.
Thanks - I'm not one to shirk a debt, even one that isn't of my own doing. Ignorance isn't a defence, I know that. I'm just terrified of losing everything.
