If you have not yet filed, consider this. Under HMRC's new system due to come into effect in 2 tax years' time - called Making Tax Digital (MTD) - you would now have clocked up well over £1,000 in fines for late submission.
That's because the due date for the first return of 2015-16 under MTD was 31 July 2015. So you are already nearly 18 months late I am afraid.Hideous Muddles from Right Charlies0 -

I am really dreading this. I do the books for a friend and don't use software which I believe I will have to because I won't be able to file the way I file SA now. I know he won't pay for the software and, as I do it as a favour, I certainly won't be paying.0 -
HMRC have come up with some stupid stuff, this is the stupidest in last 6 years which is really saying something! Worse than pasty taxes!Hideous Muddles from Right Charlies0

Is anyone having problems with the Self Assessment website right now? I logged in to the site yesterday and clicked on Self Assessment and the page said "There's a problem. Sorry, we're experiencing technical difficulties. Please try again later."
I tried logging in today, three times, and I get to the point where it asks me to enter the six-digit access code supposedly sent to my mobile but the site never sends it. I'm just wondering if the HMRC web servers are cracking under the pressure of a sudden spike in usage.0 -
It's quite common at this time of year, if you avoid peak periods it is usually better. But don't worry per HMRC under MTD their servers can easily cope with 4 times this volume.Hideous Muddles from Right Charlies0
