Self Assesment

As per usual very late sending mine back. Had to send it Special Delivery for £4, better than £100 fine though.
The queue in the Post Office was unbelievable!! Loads of people doing the same. Glad I'm not the only disorganised one around.

    I'm not paying anyone £550 to fill in three boxes, even if they did have the most annoying advert on Charton Chat.

    No extensions. If you miss the deadline- you're fined.

    yep...he works nights so he's probably asleep now, might ring him to wake him up so he does it!
    he got computer games for his b'day but he's banned from playing them till he does his tax return!!
    he got someone to help him last year, cost loads and the bloke ended up making him pay more than he should have by doing it wrong...apparently.

    if i earned enough to have to do one, i'd sort mine out monthly so i didn't get in a paddy!
  • I think most of the Civil Service is on strike tomorrow. Royal Mail do not go across picket lines so the chances are it wont get to the office until Thursday.

    Tax doesn't have to be taxing you know!

    1905 is right, the idle buggers are all out on strike tomorrow as it is anyway so it's unlikely that you'd be able to hand deliver. However, my sources tell me that in the circumstances they will likely accept things received on 1 Feb without a penalty, or if a penalty does get issued automatically then the fact that they were on strike will likely be considered a "reasonable excuse".

    (NB. I'm saying "likely" here because I'm just trying to be helpful and don't want you all suing the arse off me if it turns out to be wrong!!!)
  • Scrap what I said - apparently the tax offices are open for those last minute hand deliveries!

    Just "Tracked" my form on www.royalmail.com It got there this morning. £4 well spent I'd say!
    You can get proof of delivery too via the website, good service.

  • Is the £4 tax deductible on next years return?
