Some returns rejected by SA gateway

HMRC Trusts are having difficulties receiving some online-delivered returns.

If a return contains an entry in any of the following boxes:

• 13.19
• 14.15
• 5.20

it may be rejected by the self assessment gateway.

If this happens, a paper return should be submitted, says the Revenue.

For these cases the usual paper deadline of 31 October has been extended to 31 January.

If submitting the paper return in one of these cases after 31 October, then the taxman asks that the reason be noted on the front of the return or in an accompanying letter.

This will avoid a penalty being charged for the late submission of a paper return.

HMRC say they are ‘very sorry about the inconvenience’ that this may cause taxpayers.
