online

[woodie]

hi everybody. Last night, did my tax online. all sweet. First time tho, for me and felt good to be done on time.

This morning I turned on the news and there was a report about how we will now be encouraged to do this, perhaps to the point of compulsary.It is considered 'secure' for all people. "EXCEPT" mp's and royal family and others who will not file online. As their security is at risk.

These are the very people who's expenses blah, should be a little more public eh?

I've done mine online for the past couple of years too, it's brilliant. Easy peasy and calculates it all for you, plus you can leave it right to the last minute.

I've only had to do it once, after which I got a letter saying I probably wouldn't be asked again - bonus!

I was dreading the whole thing - but as Asset says it was easy peasy. I was almost impressed

I hear your concerns woodie, but I wouldn't trust old-fashioned mail much more - and I doubt the royal family do either

[Asset]

do they pay tax anyway?

If you do it online and you are entitled to a rebate, you fill in your bank details and it's there within days. Of course you have to be entitled to a rebate first!
