ive started adding figures up already, im aiming to fill this one in the day it arrives and get it sent off! Im sick of doing it in january and having to dig old paperwork out! Plus they owe me so much i need to get it back to cover outstanding PAYE payments!

anyone else started yet?!

Will be doing so as soon as the paperwork arrives.

Just done my first ever VAT return and ended up buying Sage Accounts to take care of everything, so I should have all my figures in place and just need to fill in the form correctly.

Be aware the date for filing paper form self-assemement tax returns is about to change.

Part of the big push to get us to file using the on line form.

ive got to do a vat return for 5 days from 1st apr to 5th apr

cheers for the head up BT, can never be bothered to do it online

I use a small local accountant, he saves me more money than he costs. Worth thinking about.

i have an accountant who charges £150 for the years PAYE for the employees, but on a good year i can manage my own returns. Im too tight to spend on an accountant! BTW, how much is it on average for a years accounts, say 50k turnover?
