A reminder that HMRC may consider extended options for settling your outstanding tax bill. The key is to contact HMRC, explain why you can’t pay on time, and discuss how you can settle any outstanding liabilities.
If you can’t pay before the deadline, call the Business Payment Support Service. Anyone can use this service, not just businesses.
