Are HMRC Ignoring Me or Their Website Doesn't Work??

maddermanblue1_2

Hi,
I started going self employed back in end of May 2012, 6 weeks later I have, within the deadline (or I think/thought) have re-registered as self employed on the HMRC website (I say re-registered as I was self employed years between 07-09) and it gave me the option to tick to say I was self employed...
after I registered a web page popped up say the details given will be passed on to the relevant department. Am I supposed to receive some sort of confirmation through the post as I'm supposed to be paying NIC class 2 now, I thought I'd get a demand by now.
I tried registering again last month, the same message the details given will be passed on to the relevant department and.....nothing.
I am also a full time employee on PAYE and want to pay income tax on my self employment job as well and they ain't making it easy.
I have no way of contacting them on the phone and it seems letter writing seems to be the only option?

Anyone with advice on what to do?

Kind Regards

When people register as self employed there are 2 separate processes at HMRC.

One deals with Income Tax.

The other deals with National Insurance.

You already have the on-line acknowledgement of your registration so what else do you need.

Income Tax.

First timers will need a UTR (10 digit reference number) which will be posted to them.

As a second timer you should already have a UTR and, especially if you quoted your UTR when registering, the first time HMRC will need to contact you will be next April when they issue a 2012/12 Tax Return or Notice to File.

National Insurance.

I am not familiar with the process here but would assume that their first need to contact you would be when you are due to pay your first Class 2 payment.

Others currently seem to be experiencing delays on this so I wouldn’t think it is worth you chasing it up.

I've just had one from 6 April 2011 to 5 April 2013 in one go, so there's definitely nothing new here.

Make sure you're putting enough money to one side here.
