Hi there,
I sincerely hope someone can help me. I am an accountant in Scotland, and need to get my Corporation Tax Agent Reference as soon as possible. I have gone through numerous telephone numbers and cannot get anyone to help me on this.
The accountant who used to work from my office retired in 2008, and is still the registered Corporation Tax Agent for this address. I need to have the reference transferred to me and to get the reference so that I can file my clients Corporation Tax Return online. I use Drummohr Tax Assistant, and don't know if I can file online with that without being registered as an agent for Corporation Tax.
Please can somebody point me in the right direction???
Regards,
Scott

Do you need to transfer the reference? If you are nothing to do with the previous accountant (presumably you aren't since they retired so long ago) surely you should be applying for your own reference. I had applied so long ago that I had forgotten I ever had and HMRC wouldn't give me any codes so I had to re-register - it didn't take very long.
Good luck
Sometimes it seems to me that it takes longer tojump through these hoops than it does to do the work!
