Self-assessment penalties
Many people have tax issues that are not straightforward, and this makes completing your tax return more complicated. You will receive a financial penalty if you miss the HRMC return deadline for submitting your self-assessment tax return - you will receive a £100 fine if your tax return is up to three months late, and if even later, the penalty will increase.
