poss new job post BR

Hi,
I was discharged last month and i have an interview in 2 weeks with a top employer and very good chances of getting the job.
Iam just a bit worried over two concerns.
I have been self employed for over 2 yrs and my Br was from July 08 - July 09, will this affect my tax if iam offered the job, tax codes etc?
Also the job will involve security checks although iam pretty sure they will not be bothered in my personnal finances but is it likely they could find out about my BR ? I am not that fussed if they do find out about my BR but i dont want it to affect my chances.

Thanks
:D MOVE ALONG........ nothing to see here..! :rolleyes:

    CRB checks far as I know wont show bankruptcy...Credit checks would...BUT if they ask you have to tell them your a discharged BR...if they dont ask then fine!

    good luck

    Thanks Philnicandamy, i am quite sure they will not be interested in credit checks. Was just a tad worried today as everything is on the up for me since being discharged and luck seems to be running my way, iam just waiting for a bomb to drop..!
