THIS IS THE TEXT OF THE ENABLING LETTER, PLEASE CLICK ON THE DISCUSSION TAB AND LEAVE DETAILS OF THE TYPE OF CLIENT (TRADE, TURNOVER, ETC) FOR WHOM YOU HAVE RECEIVED THEM.
We have recently sent you a 2006 return or a Notice to File, to be submitted please before 31 January 2007.
It is part of our job to check the tax returns you send us are complete and correct. Sometimes we make enquiries to check if a return is accurate.
Currently, most o f our enquiries result in extra tax being payable, becuase we find that people have understated their business turnover, or claimed expenses which are not allowable. When this happens, we may charge interest and penalties on the extra tax for the year of the enquiry, and in some cases for earlier years too.
If the information on your return is not complete and correct this could happen to you. I am enclosing a help sheet to help you to avoid common errors.
This letter is not an enquiry, but we want to stress the importnce of your taking special care in completing the self-employment pages of the tax return. Even though you may employ an agent, you are the person ultimately responsible for the accuracy of your return.
You can avoid interest and penalties by:
(*) reading the enclosed guidance before you complete your 2006 return (*) making sure you include all your business income
