FEBRUARY – WEEK 2

Helpful Hint: Don’t Ignore HMRC Letters — Get Professional Support Immediately


February is often when HMRC sends out follow-up letters from late returns, estimated bills, or mismatched information.
Many sole traders panic when they receive one… and many try to fix it themselves.

This is where problems begin.


Why You Should Never Try to Deal With HMRC Alone


HMRC letters are often:

  • Confusing
  • Vague
  • Filled with tax jargon
  • Missing important detail

And if you respond incorrectly, you could:

  • Agree to the wrong amount
  • Admit to an error you didn’t make
  • Miss appeal deadlines
  • Trigger further reviews
  • End up paying more than necessary

Trying to DIY your response can cost you money — and your peace of mind.


💼 Why Let Us Handle HMRC for You


When you show us the letter:

  • We explain exactly what it means
  • We check whether it’s correct
  • We identify errors in HMRC’s calculation
  • We respond professionally on your behalf
  • We ensure you don’t overpay
  • We protect you from penalties

Most of the time, the issue is small — but only if handled correctly.


👉 If HMRC writes to you, don’t panic and don’t reply alone. Send it to us and we’ll deal with it properly. *Please bare in mind this is an adhoc support and not included in your assessment prep and submission fee unless you are on our Premium Plan.
