Get Your Tax Returns In!

2009-01-15 11:03:03

The deadline for paper tax returns was the 31st October 2008, but people still have time to file their returns electronically, with the deadline for online returns being the 31st January 2009. So not long left really for those who haven't done it yet.

To fle them electronically, you need a pin code, which you need to request via the HMRC website - in the self assessment section. But they send the pin by post - which can take a week - limiting how long you really have to get your returns in on time. So get it done, as soon as you can.

Income Tax Needs to be Reduced!

2009-01-12 11:18:15

If the government wants to see any sort of revival in consumer confidence, they need to reduce income tax. According to fool.co.uk, lots of lenders won't be passing on the interest rate cuts which we saw last week, which means consumers will be less likely to benefit from the move.

Reducing taxes will have an immediate impact on household revenue and will boost consumer confidence and hopefully act to mprove the economy!
