If you're self-employed, a landlord, a company director, or have income that isn't taxed at source, you'll usually need to file a Self Assessment tax return. The deadline for online returns is 31 January following the end of the tax year, and that's also when any balance owed must be paid.
What to gather now
- Your Unique Taxpayer Reference (UTR) and Government Gateway login
- P60 or P45 from any employment, and P11D for benefits in kind
- Records of self-employed income and allowable expenses
- Rental income and costs if you let property
- Bank and building society interest, and dividend statements
- Pension contributions and Gift Aid donations
Why file early?
Filing early doesn't mean paying early. It does mean you know what you owe well in advance, you have time to plan for payments on account, and you avoid the last-minute rush. If you're due a refund, you'll get it sooner.
