Self Employment question and CV question
Discussion
Thought I would make the one tread on two, not very related, subjects. Quicker this way :-)
First of all - I registered as self employed in Jan. Simple process online. Took 10 mins and was done. I am now no longer working as self employed and need to tell the HRMC. However, I can't find anywhere that tells me how to do this. The HRMC website says that I must tell them if I am no longer self-employed. Just doesn't actually tell me how to go about it.
Can someone tell me who I contact? Can I tell them online/phone or do I need to goto my local tax office?
Secondly - Should I put my references on my CV? I am rewriting my CV as I type this and I have always been told to keep it to 2 pages. My previous CV was 3 pages and looked quite good but I have taken out a number of bits and reduced the rubbish I feel is no longer relevant and now I'm upto the bottom of page two with only the references left to add. I don't really want to put the referees details on a page of their own so should I just leave them off?
Would it put off a prospective employer if I didn't have my reference details on my CV? Surely they will ask me first if they are going to contact them anyway?

You started Self Employment in January 2009. This means you will need to supply your Self Employed Income and Expenditure details on the 2008/09 Self SAssessment tax return. You will need to complete and submit this by 31 January 2010 at the latest.
You continued in Self Employment up until (say) July 2009. Therefore you will also have Self Employment income in the tax year 2009/10. This means you will also need to complete a 2009/10 Self Assessment tax return. The deadline for submitting this will be 31 January 2011 - although you can submit it anytime after 6 April 2010. There is a box on the tax return which will enable you to notify HMRC that you ceased on (say) 31 July 2009).
If you want to, you can notify them now by telephone of your cessation date - but you will still need to complete your 2008/09 and 2009/10 Self Assessment tax returns.
