The HMRC has urged taxpayers to submit their returns early to avoid the stress of a last minute rush!
With 100 days to go before the 31 January deadline, HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) is reminding customers to complete their tax returns early to beat the Christmas and New Year rush.
The HMRC has urged taxpayers to submit their returns early to avoid the stress of a last minute rush, after it received 2,000 lodgements on Christmas Day last year.
“The deadline for completing self-assessment tax returns is only 100 days away, yet, so many of us wait until January to start the process. Avoid the last minute rush by completing your tax returns on time and then enjoy the upcoming festive period,” said Angela MacDonald, HMRC’s director general for customer services.
“We want to help people get their tax returns right – starting the process early and giving yourself time to gather all the information you need will help avoid that stressful, late rush to file.”
