What previous letters?So the previous letters came and went and I ignored them
Doubt that you'll receive much sympathy around here for possibly evading tax in the past and only reluctantly registering.and now Im looking at a letter from the Revenue Solicitor. I have 2 weeks to lodge my returns for a few years worth of trading. If I fail to comply a summons will be issued against me in respect of each outstanding return.
I work as a sole trader in an industry where very few people pay tax. My hand was forced a few years ago to register when a contractor wanted a Tax Clearance Certificate from me and so with much hesistance I registered.
Probably one or both.What is my next move? Accountant to clear this mess? Solicitor?
Start by facing up to and paying your outstanding liabilities maybe?Should I contact the revenue and say Im no longer trading? How much do they actually know?
I dont know where to start on this one.

What industry are you in?

My confusion arose because you referred to "the previous letters" as if you had mentioned them before on AAM even though this is your first post (at least under this new id).Well previous letter. Singular. That was from the tax inspector, this seems far more serious in that its from the tax solicitor.
a pertinent question would be whether you are in a posiiton to pay off your liabilities or not
Without advertising your own services are there any accountants you could recommend who would specialize in this kind of situation.
You get professional advice as already suggested.How do I know how much I owe?Even sole traders who pay tax are very flexible with what they really should be paying.
Its really just a matter of putting together the accounts ( hoping that you have the necessary backup records )
I hate to come across as really naive but I have no such records. Ive been a bit foolish on this matter. How can they put together something for me without these records?
