New for agents
Agent Update is a new bi-monthly electronic round-up for the agent community from HMRC. The update will include a summary of recent HMRC announcements, publications and guidance of interest to tax agents and advisers, together with links to further information on the HMRC website.
The first edition includes links to the latest information on HMRC help for taxpayers affected by the recent floods, and foot and mouth disease; new Money Laundering Regulations; and the latest HMRC podcasts. It also includes entries on three key changes coming into effect in October, i.e. changes to VAT invoicing, new construction industry scheme penalties, and mandatory online filing for registered pension schemes.
The update will be distributed for HMRC by trade and professional bodies. It can also be downloaded from the HMRC website.
