Appeals and tribunals

NicolaHobbs

A client has had a VAT inspection followed by a Letter of Direction from HMRC withdrawing her use of the Flat Rate Scheme and requesting further information in order to back date the withdrawal. I have already appealed to HMRC about the decision, which has been turned down. I still disagree with the decision. Should I go ahead and supply the further information required before appealing to a tribunal (ie after HMRC have calculated the amount of VAT they want to claw back), or appeal firstly against the decision before any numbers are discussed.? Thanks.

HMRC regard the business as having too close an association with 2 other companies. I have decided to send the further information but to make it clear that I still disagree and ask for a review by a senior office.
