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.

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.

The main illustrations you've made, the easy web site menu, the relationships you will assist to instill - it's mostly powerful, and it's really facilitating our son and us recognize that the topic is thrilling, and that's seriously serious.

I have to show some thanks to the writer for rescuing me from this type of difficulty. As a result of searching through the internet and finding techniques which are not beneficial, I assumed my life was over. Existing without the presence of solutions to the problems you've sorted out through your good short article is a serious case, as well as ones that would have negatively damaged my career if I had not discovered your web page. Your main competence and kindness in handling all areas was helpful. I don't know what I would've done if I hadn't encountered such a thing like this. I'm able to now look forward to my future. Thank you very much for your impressive and effective guide. I won't be reluctant to endorse the sites to any person who wants and needs guide on this issue.
