Hello,

Has anybody ever used any online tax return services that take the hassle out of it for you and deal with HMRC? Mines a personal return and fairly straight forward, no CGT or other properties, just straight forward PAYE.

Would welcome any advice or recommendations on services, like: http://www.taxdoctor.co.uk

Or is the HMRC system straight forward enough?

Thanks
:)

    I find the HMRC online self assessment straight forward.

    As above. The HMRC self-assessment is intuitive & easy to follow...

    Hello kingkelly,

    HMRC's system is fairly straight forward if you know what you are doing but if you are looking for someone to deal with HMRC on your behalf then you would need an Accountant who is also a registered Agent with HMRC.
    Happy to help if required!

    Kind regards

    More exactly you need someone who is qualified in and specialises in tax. This person may be a member of one of the acounting bodies or a Chartered Tax Adviser.
