Services
Independent Tax has extensive experience as seasoned tax and VAT professionals who, being ex-HMRC Inspectors at senior levels, are highly regarded for advising businesses and individuals on their tax affairs. We aim to advise, support, protect and defend our clients, or to support their advisors or intermediaries, when difficult HMRC issues arise.
Being faced with any HM Revenue and Customs intrusion, whether a check, an investigation or a more simple disagreement, is often a daunting prospect for both businesses and individuals. That has become more the case if you have found HMRC's approach becoming more aggressive than you think is normal.
An investigation under the Code of Practice 9 (COP9) or Contractual Disclosure Facility (CDF) - both of which are the same - is the highest level of non-criminal investigation that HMRC conduct. It is an extremely serious type of HMRC investigation and should not be taken lightly. It covers not just "tax" in the normal sense, but extends to cover any duty whatsoever that HMRC has control and management or supervisory powers over.
Where a dispute over an HMRC decision, whatever that may be, cannot be resolved then the "formal" route for settlement becomes necessary. Initially, you can ask for an internal "independent" review by HMRC, which will be conducted by a Reviewer who HMRC say is "independent" of the point at issue. A review is either offered by HMRC or requested by you and will be undertaken by someone independent of the dispute.
Being faced with an HM Revenue and Customs investigation is a daunting prospect for both businesses and individuals alike. We help ease the burden for you by either working alongside you to help manage the process, or by managing the investigation in its entirety. We are happy to be able to offer bespoke solutions to ensure your investigation support is delivered in a way that works for you.
