Id just like to thank

I don't do them either.


Funnily enough though they never return any tax to me either :(

@Manky.....What? how much interest does the tax office gain by getting a figure like , say 2 grand per person, 10 million people do it early, so that/s £20,000,000,000, how much interest would they get on that over 4 months?

I got em sussed ;)

@RF.......What do you do then? :blink:

Exactly, mate. I was having a joke with my stressed out comment. :D

No doubt it does help with staffing issues to have them staggered throughout the year but revenue collection is the biggest aim.

The money isn't actually due until Jan 31st no matter when you submit it but no doubt most people pay up on the first demand as it's a bit frightening getting letters from the Tax people.

I guessed that :rolleyes: You wer'nt gonna be a rig worker in the same place as tax office :frusty:
I mean what you do? :)

Ooo me knowing more than you :01:

Your return MUST be in by Jan 31st or you get a £100 fine, the payment must be paid by Sept 30th the following year unless it's below a certain amount and you wish to add it to the following years :)

And yes, I know it's partly to do with staffing probs, but my theory makes em sound nastier :devil:

Jonno :cool:

@RF....Ahhh I see :) Fair enough, that would explain your hovering before posting sometimes :lol:

The only time they get the money early is when they end up paying a rebate. That way someone has paid too much in advance.

They would be seriously happy, nay ecstatic if everybody just payed the right amount at the right time.

PAYE is a perfect example of the Inland Revenue getting their money early.

Also the current Self Assessment scheme requires self employed folk to pay next years tax on account. I'd say that due to timing shenanighas 95% of people in the UK pay their tax early.

Value...

What else :blink:
