You're supposed to keep everything for 5 years.

If you're not trying to avoid tax, then you're trying really hard to go out of your way to make it look like you are.

It has already been mentioned on the thread, but debts incurred through fraud do not get written off by bankruptcy.

I think a very similar answer was suggested in his thread 12 months ago. He's not listening.

And he's trotting out the 'mental health' line as well, like that's some kind of magic get out clause.

Its not fraud !!!!!!!!

I did my tax accounts myself and i did them correct however every single detail is now lost as ive sold my laptop so this is going to be very difficult to re do!

You don't have any proof. Really you didn't keep copies in any form????? I used to be employed, now retired and I always kept copies of any correspondence with HMRC infact any government bodies and work related stuff. I still have P60s etc dating back 20 years. These days with computers its even easier to keep back up copies.

So how do you think i did my own tax returns???

I did it on my laptop which has now been sold! I have no backup and didnt even think about my tax returns to be honest as they had been done and i didnt think anything else of it, therefor all my workings out have gone!

Some people are more organised than others i guess

Hmrc are asking you to prove your accounts are correct by providing evidence. You can't as you have got rid of everything therefore they are assuming you are lying and will proceed accordingly. You say you have done your accounts correct but some of the figures you have put on here are wrong e.g. 50p a mile mileage. They are presuming you are guilty unless you can provide evidence of your innocence.

Trying to save a few £100 on an accountant has bitten you hard here and I can sympathize with that but you are now on hmrc's radar and once they get a bite they will not let go. You need an accountant and you need to comply as much as possible. Saying to them I can't prove it and I will just go bankrupt anyway is not going to help you. You are meant to keep records including all receipts for 5 years. You are coming across on here as very lackadaisical. You need professional help as if they go down the fraud route which they could well do a bankruptcy will not get you out of it.
