Diary of main tax events – December 2020 / January 2021

Below is a list of the main tax events coming up for December 2020 to January 2021. It is important to be aware that filing your tax return late or failing to pay the tax you owe on time, could mean you face extra penalty fees and interest charges. It is therefore recommended that you authorise a tax specialist such as Beavis Morgan to handle your tax affairs and deal with HM Revenue & Customs on your behalf. This will ensure that all deadlines are met and that you are not paying more tax than you need to.
