Have been reading bits of my small business start up book again over Christmas.

One of the points it made was that if I pay myself £4004 (FY2003-04 figure) then I actually qualify for basic standards of goverment payouts on sick pay, pension etc.

It also said that as the director of my company if I do meet that £4004 but dont exceed the £4600ish Income Tax limit I can claim the Job Seekers Allowance.

Is this true?

Can I claim for missed months? (Company trading for 14 months)

Are there any tricks / wording / payment I need to make to qualify for this?

Anything else I need to look at?

Thanks in advance.
