Self assessment confusion

[cranberrytea]

I am applying for citizenship based on time in the UK requirements. I have had ILR for over a year and meet all the requirements. The only problem I am having is the evidence of self-assessment statement. I am a company director of a small limited company. I have not taken any salary or dividends from the company (which is trading but yet to bring in enough money for a profit and all monies brought in have been reinvested into the company). Therefore, I am not registered for PAYE and do not have to fill in a self-assessment. I haven't taken any benefits from the company that would require this. My HMRC tax office should corroborate this if contacted by the home office however I am wondering if I should include something stating that I have not included a self-assessment because I haven't met the requirements to do one or if I should just leave it be and am over thinking it. Recommendations?
Also, my OH and I are in disagreement re: Life in the UK Test. I passed it for my ILR 1.5 years ago. I think it is still valid and I can use it for my citizenship application. Is this correct?
Thank you!

I only know about the life in uk part yes it's still valid it has no expiry .also you need to show English level b1 either with uk degree or English test .about hmrc I hope some senior will help you .

That is what I thought. Just wanted to settle the disagreement. I am from a primarily English speaking country so the language requirement isn't an issue. English is my first language.

Anyone have any ideas? Would really appreciate any thoughts. Thanks.

As you soon as become a LTD company director you have to do a self assessment. It doesn't matter whether you pay yourself or not. Self assessment has to be done in my view.

That is what I thought but according to HMRC that is not the case. I tried to do one and it wouldn't let me so I called and was informed that I didn't need to do one.

I think that is incorrect.

I called HMRC again and you are right. Thank you for prompting me to question it again. Will get that sorted and then its all set. Thank you!
