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 and also my buddies came looking at the good guides found on the website and suddenly I got a terrible suspicion I never expressed respect to the web blog owner for those strategies. All the guys were definitely as a result passionate to see them and now have seriously been using those things. Appreciate your truly being well accommodating and then for deciding on this form of superb things most people are really needing to be aware of. Our own honest apologies for not saying thanks to you sooner.

I wish to express some appreciation to you for bailing me out of this particular trouble. As a result of looking out through the search engines and meeting thoughts that were not helpful, I believed my entire life was over. Being alive minus the answers to the problems you've resolved all through your good website is a critical case, as well as those which could have in a negative way affected my entire career if I hadn't discovered your site. The expertise and kindness in playing with the whole lot was very helpful. I'm not sure what I would've done if I had not encountered such a point like this. I can at this time relish my future. Thanks for your time so much for this specialized and result oriented help. I will not be reluctant to propose your web site to any individual who needs support about this matter.

I have to show my appreciation to the writer for rescuing me from this particular trouble. As a result of researching through the the net and coming across opinions that were not productive, I assumed my entire life was well over. Existing without the answers to the difficulties you've solved through this short post is a critical case, and those which could have badly damaged my career if I had not noticed the blog. Your personal understanding and kindness in controlling every aspect was vital. I am not sure what I would've done if I hadn't encountered such a point like this. I am able to at this moment look ahead to my future. Thanks for your time so much for this skilled and result oriented guide. I will not hesitate to recommend the blog to anyone who should have recommendations on this situation.
