Is a Community Interest Company a "close company" for Self-Assessment Tax purposes?
I am currently doing my first Self-Assessment Tax return as director of Move4words CIC.I find myself stumped by the question following the one in which I said Yes to being a director: If 'Yes', was this company a close company?Is a CIC limited by share (£2) and with only two participants (both directors) a close company? If it is, what are the implications?HMRC defines a 'close company' for Corporation Tax purposes as a company that is controlled directly or indirectly by five or fewer…See More

Help, please! I am completely confused about how to deal with NICs due on expenses for our relatively new CIC.

I wish I'd realised this before I set up a CIC! However, it is academic at the moment, as the income from the CIC is still very low and doesn't cover costs let alone salaries. I hope that this problem is sorted out before it…"

've just set up Move4words CIC to provide my new coordinated body and eye movement programme for low prices to UK schools. There is really impressive evidence to demonstrate the programme's effectiveness in raising literacy and academic performance in both Primary and Secondary school children.
I'm currently offering the programme for the price of my travel expenses only, to any schools which would like to use the programme after Easter 2011, and in return, provide some more evidence for the effects on educationally relevant factors like concentration, reading comprehension, behaviour etc.
