Final Self-Assessment Tax Return Reminder

If you have not yet filed your Self-Assessment Income Tax Return, we recommend that you try to do so as soon as possible. The deadline for this is 31st January 2025. We recommend that, where possible, returns be filed as soon as is practical to do so, as HMRC’s automated systems do sometimes struggle during January when thousands of taxpayers try to keep to that deadline. If you require our support, please contact us as soon as possible, so we can fit you in before 31st January 2025. Although we will always do our best to beat the deadlines, leaving it to the last minute does increase your chances of missing the cut-off and incurring a late filing penalty.

The earlier you file your return means you have time to budget in tax bills at a time when rising costs means more of us are struggling. If returns are filed earlier then there is time to negotiate with HMRC to arrange payment plans, if required.
