Early in January 2019 HMRC issued late filing penalties to many self-assessment tax payers in error.  One of our clients received the notice of the fine despite that fact that the return had been successfully filed electronically and deadline date had not been reached.

We understand that HMRC have reviewed their records and attempted to correct the error but if anyone has received a late filing penalty which they believe to be incorrect they should contact HMRC immediately.

We are able to assist anyone who finds their self in this position.
