Behind on returns? Let's put it right — calmly.
It happens more often than you'd think. The important thing is to deal with it, and we'll help you do that without judgement.
Where you are
The questions on your mind
- “How many years do I need to file?”
- “Will I be fined?”
- “Where do I even start?”
You're not the first to ask — and they all have clear answers.
What matters
What you need to know
Each year stands alone
Every outstanding year needs its own return, prepared under the rules for that year.
Penalties grow over time
Late-filing penalties increase the longer a return is outstanding, so acting sooner helps.
Letters from HMRC
Notices and penalty letters should be read carefully — bring them to your first conversation.
