Filing Deadline – Midnight 31st January 2018

With all the fun of Halloween, Bonfire Night, Christmas & New Year still to come, it easy to push the HMRC deadline of 31st January 2018 for personal tax returns and tax payments to the back of your mind.

December through to January is one of the busiest times of year for every accountant, as we process a considerable amount of paperwork to meet the deadline.

Deadline For Your 2016/17  Personal Tax Records to Ozkan Accountants
We’re here to help with your accounts and tax returns and to give you sound advice on accounting systems and ways in which you can become tax efficient.

We’ll do everything we can to help you meet the 31st January 2018 deadline, but good as we are, we aren’t able to work miracles if we get your information too close to the date.

So, please ensure that you deliver, or email, all of your relevant paperwork to us as soon as possible and ideally before the end of November 2017.

Preparing for Your Personal Tax Payments
Please remember that you also have to make your tax payment by midnight on 31st January 2018. Due to tax changes that came into force this year, particularly in relation to dividend payments, both your tax payment and your payment on account may be higher than in previous years.

Ensuring That You Have Sufficient Funds
It’s important to make sure that you have the funds available to pay your tax bill and the earlier we have your paperwork, the sooner we can let you know how much that will be and the more time you will have to secure it.
