In VAT you have things which are exempt from VAT and things which have VAT at zero rate. So for both there is no VAT to pay.
What's the point of that.

It's all to do with the claiming back of the VAT, rather than the paying of it.
You can claim back any VAT paid on the zero-rated items but, sadly, any VAT which you've paid on the exempt items is not reclaimable.
It's a subtle nuance which many miss.

You'll be telling me next that businesses can be partially exempt and that they can only reclaim their input tax based on a mixture of apportionment of the input tax between that which is directly related to taxable supplies and that which relates to exempt supplies and a residual amount, relating to both, which is then also apportioned, normally as a ratio between the taxable and exempt supplies.
You dare to defy the rod?!!?!??Originally Posted by JPaul

Ok while you lot are talking paperwork, why would the IRS send me tax returns when I've been in employment for over 18 months?
I filed my last one for self employment last year.
They've also sent me a bill for NI from Jan to Apr of this year when I've been paying stamp obviously since I started employment.
I know I could phone them but their hard work
