Hi everyone,
No. 38 declaring my January overpayment. First month and first monthly target beaten
Which is good because I'm expecting a smaller overpayment next month as I have a few big post xmas bills to come out.
So, that's £785.33 overpaid
I did try to use the form on the first post but couldn't get it to work

Thanks Spiggle,
One error i've made though is i copied my target from last year however my 10% OP limit is £18,000 not £19,500. If you can amend that it would be appreciated.
Regards
