Water, water everywhere…

If you have any clients who are unfortunate enough to be seriously affected by the latest spate of Biblical deluges then HMRC have still got a helpline for them and are prepared to make concessions as we last reported back in 2014….

The helpline will enable anyone affected to get fast, practical help and advice on a wide range of tax problems they may be facing.

HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) will also

- agree instalment arrangements where taxpayers are unable to pay as a result of the floods

- agree a practical approach when individuals and businesses have lost vital records to the floods

- suspend debt collection proceedings for those affected by the floods

- cancel penalties when the taxpayer has missed statutory deadlines

The helpline is in addition to other HMRC telephone contact numbers.

The helpline is free on 0800 904 7900. Opening hours are Monday to Friday, 8.00 am to 8.00 pm; Saturday and Sunday, 8.00 am to 4.00 pm, excluding bank holidays.

Confirmation is at the link below.

Anyone made use of this facility yet for this latest bout of weather awfulness?
