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)
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.

Get ahead for 2020
| Posted on December 6, 2019 at 5:45 AM |
With the Christmas preparations to do, the parties to go to and the the election next week it is a very busy time of year for most of us and the last thing we may be concerned about it is our self assessment tax return. However, 2019 is now drawing to a close and it will soon be January leaving us just one month to prepare our annual tax returns. Now is the time to get ahead for 2020! Contact Sam ([email protected]/ 01983 653145) to discuss how I can assist you to prepare your accounts and tax return, send me your accounts records, then sit back with your mince pie and sherry while they are prepared for you. January's only taxing task is to review and approve for submission!

I simply desired to appreciate you again. I do not know the things I would've done without the type of tricks shown by you directly on such a industry. It seemed to be a very troublesome issue in my position, however , finding out a new specialized fashion you resolved the issue forced me to weep with joy. I am happier for this support and have high hopes you are aware of a powerful job that you are putting in teaching most people all through your blog. More than likely you have never met any of us.
