One of the roles of HMRC is to help customers get their tax returns right, so that they pay the right amount of tax or receive the right benefits.

We are testing new ways of working with customers which we believe will be less time consuming and less complicated than other procedures we use. Your participation in this trial is voluntary and this is not a notice of intention to enquire under our existing formal powers.

We feel that these new approaches will help customers to deal with any mistakes quickly and get their tax right now and for the future.

With this in mind I would like to telephone you on insert date between the hours of xx:xx and xx:xx to discuss this, the call should not take up too much of your time. When I call I would like to discuss [insert risk] in the year ended 5 April xxxx. Please can you have any relevant documents to hand?

The contact number I have for you is xxxxx xxxxxx but if your telephone number has changed since you last notified HMRC, or you want to be contacted on another number or at a different date or time, please call me as soon as possible and we will make suitable arrangements.

You may have a representative who handles your tax affairs and you may decide your representative should deal with this call on your behalf. If this is the case please get back to us with your representative’s name and contact details.
