We (husband and I) filed tax returns this year for the last 5 years. We expected to get a refund but were shocked to discover that we own them 8.5k! My husband is a proprietary director for a company from which he receives NO income and he has been fined for filing a late return. The fine seems to be based on all our PAYE income, rather than the company income. We receive no income other than that which we get from our normal PAYE jobs. What are our chances of successfully appealing this? It seems a bit unfair that someone receiving no income should be fined in this way (and yes, I know Revenue isn't about "fair")
