Posted - 11 March 2009 : 22:14:50 Hi, Wondered if anyone has come across my dilema. I had a business which was a partnership, both myself & business partner went bankrupt in Nov 2008, due to the current financial climate. Our accounts were with the accountant when we declared ourselves bankrupt as we could not afford the £2000 bill from them. Our tax returns did not get filed due to this, the inland rev our now sending us both late tax return penalties of £100. I spoke to them & they were not at all understanding , saying it is my responsibilty to file them & to get it sorted. I have spoken to the O.R. & he has said that now i am BR that they should not be chasing me, however the inland rev said that does not make a difference. A little confused over it all & just wondered if anyone has come across this. Paul

this is really a matter that the examiner can deal with as it is now a matter for them to deal with your creditors. Send the demand for the £100 to them.
You could try to deal with this yourself but they are more likely to take notice of the OR's office. I don't think the person you spoke to at HMRC understands the BR process.
