in Cutting tax
Can anyone clear up some confusion about the tax return due before 31st Jan?
My friend worked freelance in 2012 for about 5 months. Does she have to do her self-assessment/tax return before the 31st Jan?
She says she does it next year because the tax year for 2012 runs in to April this year?
