Hi everyone.
It looks like I'm going to be made redundant at the end of the month after 5 years of employment. I'm thinking of starting my own business again (I was self-employed before this employment) and was wondering what the implications may be? How would payments be calculated? If it was a limited company and I only paid myself enough to cover my outgoings would the IP be able to use company profits? I'm currently 2 years into my IVA.

The IP would need to see the company accounts. You will have to pay yourself a fair wage and dividend and will only be allowed to keep back a reasonable amount for working capital.
My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.
