Trusts: online tax returns

HMRC Trusts are having some serious problems with information not coming through when it is delivered in an online return. This information mainly concerns section 9 of the return and the details on the supplementary capital gains and foreign pages. HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) is very sorry that these problems have occurred and is doing its best, working closely with the information technology and data management partners, to fix them as soon as possible.

The latest position is that it is hoped to be able to fix the majority of these problems in the next four weeks. There is no need to contact HMRC at this stage if you have already made your online return for 2008-09. HMRC is expecting that all of the information that you sent on that return will be available to HMRC Trusts once the problems are fixed. You will be updated further on progress.
