HMRC has announced that Self Assessment customers will not be charged the initial 5% late payment penalty if they pay their tax or make a Time to Pay arrangement by 1 April.
The payment deadline for Self Assessment is 31 January and interest will be charged from 1 February on any amounts outstanding. The deadline has not changed, but HMRC is giving taxpayers more time to pay or set up a payment plan this year, because of the impact of COVID 19.
To avoid a late payment penalty, payment plans or payments in full must be in place by midnight on 1 April
If you are worried about paying your tax please contact HMRC and for further advise on this announcement please contact one of our team via our website.
Customers can set up a payment plan online, on GOV.UK.
Self Assessment customers who have yet to file their tax return should do so by 28 February to avoid a late filing penalty.
