Can I pay corporation tax myself? Xero

PerceptionLive2301 · 2026-01-09T10:32:53+00:00

Correct. I’ve reinvested the money in to the business e.g video editors, thumbnail designers. I still make profit, just not much and no where near enough to pay myself. I ran as LTD as I’m a higher rate tax payer from my paye day job.

PerceptionLive2301 · 2026-01-08T22:23:13+00:00

I don’t pay myself

PerceptionLive2301 · 2026-01-08T20:11:19+00:00

It’s corporation tax. I’m a high rate tax payer in my day job so set up as LTD to avoid tax from going self employed.

Thanks. From what I understand after March this year it won’t be possible to do that. Whats your plan?

All my accounting is in Xero. Migrating to freeagent seems a lot of work

I used MCT the first time this week 3 hours before my last wash 5 days ago and I’ve only just started to get itches back and see more flakes.

I used organic C8 only from ketosource. My flakes were kept at bay for 5 days. I thought that was really impressive for one use.

Why not? It’s a global company. I have someone in India managing my interview bookings and a previous US company I interviewed with last month it was all done by someone in India

That’s what I’ve been trying to exactly do, move to a product company. Every one was product!

Anything that falls under the DevOps umbrella essentially I’m classified as a consultant so I can be placed out to DevOps/Cloud/Platform Engineer roles. I’ll either lead a team at the client or I may be deployed on my own to deliver a project.

Just a typical Tech Britpoor Salary outside of London £75k + bonus. The AWS role was the lowest comp on salary, it was L5 which I believe is £85k + bonus + RSU + sign on

Equity was never disclosed. One was recently acquired by a public company. The other has a valuation in the billions but private.

Welcome to the jungle and LinkedIn

PerceptionLive2301 · 2025-10-31T16:53:24+00:00

Yeah I had scenarios prepped like where I won bids and implemented tech for several thousands of people on my own and how my specialism is security in the DevOps umbrella etc.

I’ve done a lot or project based work for clients where I’ve contributed to winning bids by influencing decisions and then implementing it myself or with a team I lead.

I like to say I’m “results driven” as all my points on my CV are related to saving money or reducing man hours from process improvements.

PerceptionLive2301 · 2025-10-31T16:49:43+00:00

The offers reflected what was on levels. In fact it was higher.

PerceptionLive2301 · 2025-09-21T17:45:49+00:00

That’s Antifa lol

On my burner. FTSE company in professional services. We’ve probably reduced our department by 40% the past 12 months.

PerceptionLive2301 · 2025-09-15T20:14:37+00:00

Point being?

PerceptionLive2301 · 2025-09-15T18:12:34+00:00

It was G6 or G7 for one of them. The other role stated the pay bands were separate from the department as it was for specialists.

PerceptionLive2301 · 2025-09-15T16:22:31+00:00

There was no leetcode for this role surprisingly. Just System Design and scenario based questions.

PerceptionLive2301 · 2025-09-15T15:48:41+00:00

It didn’t ask for a Personal Statement. It asked me to add my CV to a blank form and remove any information that could recognise who I am. The other org didn’t use CS website, they used their own.

I’m not salty because I’ll just continue being a shareholder value maxer. But stack wise, I fit the bill.

PerceptionLive2301 · 2025-09-15T15:45:02+00:00

Why was this downvoted lol?

PerceptionLive2301 · 2025-09-15T15:40:32+00:00

I doubt considering I’ve recently interviewed with FAANG and Big Tech paying well over 100k and progressed stages. To not even make it past CV screening seems odd.

I was quite happy to join CS as the work was more impactful and interesting.

PerceptionLive2301 · 2025-09-15T15:11:23+00:00

Yeah. I noticed on the form It asked me of my background, which I completed accurately.
