Filing self assessment tax return without 64-8

Posted by johnnairne PM | on Wed, 14/12/2011 - 11:43 2807 29 comments | report

We use PTP software for online filing of SA returns. I seem to recall that we can file a return without a 64-8, if we have the UTR and the NI number of the client.

We tried to get electronic authority but there must have been an unknown issue with the clients address, because it got rejected.

We have now sent in a 64-8 form to Longbenton (recorded delivery) but wonder how long this may take to process (if it doesn't get lost!)

Can we file without 64-8?
