Hi I need some advice regarding getting hold of form P810 for paying tax on rental income. It's not available as a PDF but we've requested one 6 times from our local tax office. Three times on the web, twice over the phone, once by letter sent recorded delivery. They just don't seem ti care but we are trying to do things by the book. Any advice please?

Don't you only need to fill in a form P810 if/when they ask you to?
From direct.gov.uk they say the following:

Form P810
If you don't have to fill in a tax return each year, HMRC may still need to check your income every so often to make sure you don't pay too much or too little tax, they do this by asking you to fill in form P810.
When you fill in form P810 you can use it to ask for tax relief for your allowable expenses. If your expenses are over £1,000, they will ask you to fill in form P87 as well to give more details about your expenses.

But there doesn't seem to be the form itself on-line.

So, not sure if that helps - sorry!

This might help explain your options...

Hi guys, thanks for your replies very interesting! I thought I needed to fill in a P810 based on the information given here:

I'm still not sure what to do, as when we have spoken to the tax office in person they have said they will issue us with a P810, so they are obviously unaware that they can't or that we should be doing something different.
