CIS Late return penalty
Permalink Closed

 

Morning all (well it was when I started typing)

Just wondered if you were aware that if you filed a Nil CIS return after the 19th due date and subsequently received the £100 late submission penalty then you can appeal this online and HMRC will agree the appeal and cancel the fixed penalty.

I had always been under the impression that if the return was late whether a Nil return or not then the penalty would be enforced unless a reasonable excuse could be proved but it seems that if no tax is due then HMRC will automatically cancel the penalty.

Hi Doug

That's correct, and in the past I have had a penalty squashed for that reason.

Now if only they applied a similar logic to SA penalties!!
