HMRC Cancels Penalties for Late Submissions
For most of those due to submit a tax return for the 2013-14 tax year, the deadline was 31 January 2015 and tax for the year had to be paid by that date. Nearly 1 million taxpayers missed this deadline.
However, those who missed the deadline are being let off their £100 fine from HMRC.
...and the reduction in the Annual Investment Allowance (AIA)
You can claim capital allowances when you buy plant and machinery that you keep to use in your business. However, from January 2016 the amount you can claim is going to drop from the present £500,000 to £25,000.
