HMRC has reminded taxpayers that they now have 25 days until the deadline for self assessment online return submission.
Self assessment taxpayers have until 31 January 2024 to submit their online return for the 2022/23 tax year.
According to HMRC, more than 77,500 taxpayers beat the clock and filed their tax return on 6 April – the first day of the new tax year.
HMRC is now encouraging others to complete their return as soon as they can so they know what they owe and can budget to make the payment by 31 January 2024. This also means that if a repayment is due, it can be claimed back sooner.
Myrtle Lloyd, HMRC's Director General for Customer Services, said:
''My advice for anyone completing their Self Assessment is to get prepared and, if they need extra support, to access HMRC's free online help and resources. Search 'Self Assessment' on GOV.UK to find out more.''
Customers can pay through the HMRC app. If customers cannot pay in full, HMRC wants to help them to find an affordable way for them to pay the tax they owe.
If customers owe less than £30,000, they may be able to set up a Time to Pay arrangement and do this online without speaking to HMRC.
