From the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW) – Tax News (my highlights) :
The number of self assessment (SA) tax returns filed by the 31 January 2018 deadline for 2017 returns has once again reached a new high. 10.7 million taxpayers submitted their return on time and 9.9 million of these were filed online. For those interested in statistics, this means that more than 92.5% of total returns were completed online. And of course it does also mean that over half a million tax returns remain unfiled.
Don’t be alarmed or startled if you receive a message like this in your inbox this/last month! It’s from HMRC, and if you’re paying tax under Self Assessment, almost certainly about the fact that another tax year has passed and so you’ll need to file another, annual tax return.
