Deadline for paper self assessment tax returns

When is the deadline for filing?

For paper returns, the deadline for filing your return for the 2015/2016 financial year is midnight on 31 October.

Returns submitted after that date must be submitted electronically or they will incur a minimum penalty of £100. The penalty applies even when there is no tax to pay or the tax is paid on time.

It's worth noting that if you miss the paper deadline you must not post back the form, even if you do an online return as well. You'll be deemed to have submitted late and will be subjected to a fine.

If you would like any help with the completion of your return please do get in touch.
