Arctic Systems
Many clients work through there own limited companies and pay dividend to both themselves and their spouses. This is a very tax effective method of extracting remuneration and one which the Inland Revenue had sought to attack. The test case being Arctic Systems. The good news is that the Inland Revenue has just lost in the Court of Appeal and may not be able to take the matter to the House of Lords. We will provide more information when the situation becomes clearer.
