Is it possible to submit an amended 2010 tax return online? It won't allow me via the HMRC online software, just wondering if any third party providers will let me do this?
Cheers

Yes, if Andica does this, the software cost would be under £17 from memory.
I only started using TaxCalc in 2011 so assumed the re-submit facility had been there for some time, but I must be mistaken. Just quickly glancing at their website it looks like personal return software with self employment starts at £26 - not sure if this includes VAT. Tim
If you need to correct a previous years return (without software) you need to write to HMRC
Extract from HMRC
Correcting mistakes after 12 months
If you want to tell HMRC about a mistake after 12 months, it's too late to amend your return. You have to write to HMRC and tell them about the mistake instead.
Ahh thanks Bill; I see what Ben was getting at now.
The HMRC blurb does not state 2010 amendments would be prevented from entering their system. Presumably you'd get a rejection message. Has anyone attempted this?
Just tried to send a test 2010 Personal Self Assessment Tax Return through TaxCalc and received a failure message - so it looks like the postal system is the only method for now.
You can however submit all back dated Corporation Tax Returns - so I am guessing that at some point in the future we may be able to do the same for personal tax returns too. Here's hoping!
I chose a bad time to change tax software as no sooner had I done so then all the HMRC errors came to light going back four or more years. Andica was a great 1-off solution to filing a 2008 Return recently but that was just late submission not re-submission. Not sure that I'd like to use it all the time though, unless someone can tell me later versions are more user friendly.
