Although the Talking Points programme has been suspended for the time being, HMRC is running a series of webinars on the CJRS and SEISS.

Book a place on live 'how to' CJRS and SEISS webinars.

If you are not already registered to receive the HMRC Employer Bulletin, the latest edition (No.83) is now out and contains detail on all the various assistance programmes including SSP and SMP for employers and agents to be aware of.

HMRC community forums

HMRC has an online customer forum where you can post questions on a range of tax topics that are answered by HMRC experts. The forum now includes “PAYE and Payroll for Employers”.

ICAS Members are encouraged to join this.

The Knowledge Base is a new feature which contains answers to FAQs on a variety of topics and where you can find information on a number of subjects to help with tax matters. Content is regularly updated and new material added.

Anyone can view the forum at https://community.hmrc.gov.uk. To post a question, simply register and create a profile.

A registered forum member can:

  • View posts
  • Add or post topics / questions

Consultations

The ICAS tax team responds to many consultations on tax issues and welcomes members’ views to assist in preparing responses. If you have any comments on open consultations let us know.

Details of current consultations on tax issues can be found here:
