HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) have announced that nearly 44,800 people have sorted their upcoming 31 January tax bill by setting up a payment plan.

HMRC provide the option of a monthly payment called Time to Pay (see link below). Provided taxpayers owe less than £30,000, they can use HMRC’s affordability checker for help to decide on what arrangement will work best for them.

This arrangement must be set up before 31 January to avoid facing a penalty. Interest will be applied to any outstanding balances from 1 February.

If you need help working out how to make your tax payment or to set up a payment arrangement, please call us and we will be happy to help!
