Watch out for HMRC Scams
It could be a scam if it:
1. is unexpected, 2. offers a refund, tax rebate or grant, 3. asks for personal information like bank details, 4. is threatening, 5. tells you to transfer money
You can be sure that HMRC will:
1. only ever call you asking about a claim or payment on a debt that you already know about, 2. never leave a voicemail threatening legal action, 3. never give the reason for a call on a voice message
If you receive any communication through WhatsApp claiming to be from HMRC it’s a scam.

Stay vigilant about scams, which may mimic government messages as a way of appearing authentic. Search 'scams' on GOV.UK for information on how to recognise genuine HMRC contact. You can also forward suspicious emails claiming to be from HMRC to [email protected] and texts to 60599.
Third grant of the Self-Employment Income Support Scheme (SEISS)
Third grant of the Self-Employment Income Support Scheme (SEISS)
For self-employed clients, the third SEISS grant closes for claims on Friday 29 January. You must claim on or before this date.
Similar to the first and second SEISS grants, the third SEISS grant will also be subject to Income Tax and self-employed National Insurance. Alongside the first and second grants, the third SEISS grant should be reported on your 2020/21 Self Assessment tax returns (filing deadline 31 January 2022).
Where you also claim Universal Credit (UC), the Self-Employed Income Support Scheme grant should be reported to DWP in the month the grant is paid and may affect the amount of UC received.

• £25,000 cash grants for retail, hospitality and leisure - Businesses must have a rateable value between £15,000 and £51,000. Local authorities will write to businesses that meet the criteria.
• £10,000 grant for the smallest businesses - Any businesses currently eligible for Small Business Rate Relief (SBBR) or Rural Rate Relief will qualify. Apply for the emergency funding direct from their local Council.
• Self-employed Income Support - The Government is to pay self-employed people across the UK a taxable grant worth 80% of their average monthly profit. This will be calculated from up to three years of tax filings (if available), and be capped at £2,500 per month. HMRC will contact eligible taxpayers and tell them how to apply. This will not be available until June 2020.
• Tax and VAT bills delayed - Payment of key taxes will be automatically deferred to provide businesses with a further potential source of working capital. You may need to cancel direct debit instructions with your bank if direct debits have been set up to pay taxes.

It's quite particularly generous of you to deliver publicly what a number of us could possibly have distributed for an ebook to make some dough for their own end, mostly given that you could have tried it in case you considered necessary. The guidelines as well served to be the great way to realize that some people have a similar zeal the same as my very own to realize more pertaining to this problem. I am certain there are thousands of more enjoyable occasions up front for many who look into your website.
