Self Assessment Tax return

Options
I have a property that I currently rent out. I have previously used an accountant to do my tax return. I have just paid my tax there in July ( that was for 08/09 ) I am thinking i can just do my tax return myself as it is pretty straight forward. Dont want to do it online would rather do a paper return. This has to be in for October 2009 ? Is that correct ? and this would be for 09/10 ? Is this correct ?

    Yes, paper returns have to be with HMRC by 31 October - but for the year 08-9, the one which ended on 5 April 09.
    The payment you made on 31 July was the second payment on account for 08-09 which will need to be adjusted once you self assess for that year.

    Thank you for your fast reply. so will need to find out what form i need to get, as the accountant did it last year.
