Bankruptcy Annulment
In 2005-2006 I was studying at college, whilst at college I was working 4 hours per week totaling £20 per week. (Cutting Grass)
I told a tutor about my work and they advised me that I had to register as self-employed.
I followed this bad advice, as I was earning far below the threshold.
I got a letter from HMRC which I admittedly ignored as I assumed they would later correct themselves when they knew I was a student.
HMRC then later estimated that I owed approx. £17000 in Tax for 2 years earning of £20pw.
Again I ignored correspondence sending them only 1 email explaining my circumstances and situation.
In 2010 HMRC successfully made me Bankrupt which I didn’t know about as they sent all their paperwork to a previous address, although they successfully traced me down so I could attend a meeting with the Official Receiver who felt compassion and sympathy for me after I explained my situation and she even said I should never have been made Bankrupt.
Although I am now Discharged, I was wondering if there was a case that I could still get the initial Bankruptcy Order Annulled or Cancelled and my record corrected.
I’m not interested in any compensation or anything else, just that my Credit Report be updated and the Bankruptcy Order that was wrongfully awarded be cancelled and removed.
Thank You in advance for any advice.
