charity

hi
I made about £100 charity donations 12/13 according to bank statements, and have snuck into the higher rate tax bracket doing my returns. Should I include this £100 figure? Does it reduce my liability?

If I was on the 20% bracket, ditto above?

thanks

Definitely - in both cases. Enter the payment you made - the tax relief will be given in the calculation

thanks for that

i don't think I included charity anytime from 2008 when i registered s/e, can i add it in this year retrospectively and include a sentence at the end in the added note section?

You can't claim against all charity donations - only Gift Aided ones.
