Individuals
Most people pay their income tax as a deduction from their salary under the PAYE scheme operated by their employer. However, HM Revenue & Customs issue Self Assessment tax returns to people with more complicated tax affairs, or if they fall under one or more of the following categories:
- receive income from self-employment
- are a company director
- receive foreign income
- receive rental income
- have made a capital gain
- receive other income on which tax was not deducted at source
Submitting a Tax Return
If HM Revenue & Customs issue you with a Self Assessment tax return, there are deadlines by which it must be submitted and penalties if these deadlines are missed:
- paper returns must be submitted by 31 October following the tax year end (5th April)
- if filing your tax return online, the deadline is 31 January following the tax year end (5th April)
The initial penalty for missing a deadline is £100, rising over time.
