HMRC helpline – Support for individual/businesses affected by flooding

Posted by: edwinsmith on February 19th, 2014

HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) have recently launched a new telephone helpline for anyone affected by the recent floods.

The helpline is 0800 904 7900

The helpline will enable individuals/businesses to obtain practical assistance on a wide range of tax problems they may be facing as a result of the floods.

HMRC may be able to offer the following support:

  • agree instalments where taxpayers are unable to pay as a result of floods;
  • agree a practical approach when individuals and businesses have lost vital records to the floods
  • Suspend debt collection proceedings for those affected by the floods and;
  • Cancel penalties when the tax payer has missed statutory deadlines.

Please contact us if you require any assistance in connection with HMRC support.
