I know I have talked about the Tax agents’ toolkits, but have you looked at what they offer?
HMRC have 20 Tax agents’ toolkits available for you to download and use. They are a free online resource aimed at helping you to avoid the most common errors we see in filed returns.
On Thursday 31 August 2017, midday to 1pm, we will hold a Talking Points meeting about the technical aspects of the Worldwide Disclosure Facility and Requirement to Correct.
We also have the Talking Points meeting, Option to Tax - The once and done approach. This meeting is a general overview of option to tax, when to notify, how to notify and who can notify and takes place on Friday 1 September 2017, midday to 1pm.
Agents have told us that not all their client’s lenders will accept the self-serve copy printed from their HMRC online account or the commercial software used to file the SA return, or their commercial software does not print. A list of lenders who will accept self-serve copies can be found in the HMRC’s guidance, Mortgage providers and lenders who accept a SA302 tax calculation and a tax year overview.
