Tax Returns

**RedDevil_UK** · 10-01-2006

i dont know if anyone else here is self employed or not...

but i was just wondering what the best software is for working out tax returns, self assessment etc..

as you know they have to be in by 31st jan, so im running late

i was looking for a review site on google, but no luck... if someone can recommend one great

I use the paper method - Simplex D, double ledgers

**rolfw** · 10-01-2006

Haven't started mine yet, but I might apply for an online submission and put it in in the next couple of weeks.

I just use a standard spreadsheet for my working out.

I know, ive done it using excel before, but in this day and age, i would have thought a good software alternative would be available.

you can use the one supplied at _http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/home.htm but when i registered this morning is said i would receive my password and username in the mail.... thats Royal Mail not email!! in the next 7 days.

i wanted to get it done, not wait another 7 days.

there is some out there, but they all seem American, need a UK one really

Looks like a Day or 2 with Excel then

time to add all the receipts up out of this big chuffin tin lol

LOL, same here, better start digging out the invoices as well.

If you are VAT registered , then at least you will have only three months to deal with in the next week.

**rolfw** · 10-01-2006

Not VAT registered, so have a full year's worth.

I use Taxcalc 2005
You have to get it every year, but it's only £19.95, and you can get it by download.
Used it for the last few years and is very easy to use

**rolfw** · 10-01-2006

Thanks, just downloaded it, looks like it should make life a little easier and it's cheaper than the £100 fine I usually pay.

***Artist 2004*** · 10-01-2006

Ive used it every year for last 5 years - I only need the free version, and it tells me I must claim 1 to 2 thou each year, so I do, and the IR pays it straight away.

Could you please post a link, I could do with £2k next month.

**rolfw** · 10-01-2006

http://www.google.com/pagead/iclk?sa...ts/taxcalc.asp Should get you there.

***BGonaSTICK*** · 10-01-2006

LOL, what's £19.95 when you earn as much as Rolf does...

**rolfw** · 10-01-2006

Three weeks wages.
