At the moment we each have our own accounts. We keep our income relatively low (we don't take on too much work) so that after the personal allowance we pay little if any tax. It may sound lazy but I don't see the point in taking on millions of kids, amassing loads of money just to give it to the tax man (and receive less working tax credit!!).
Is there a different allowance for partnerships? If not our combined profit would amount to double and we'd have to pay loads of tax surely?
But are we going about this illegally? Please don't tell me to ring HMRC. I find them as lucid as ofsted when it comes to answering a simple question.
Incidentally we have informed ofsted. Our last inspection was a joint inspection but we got individual reports.
Thanks for any feedback
