Online filing

[Mustang]

If accounts (or anything else) are files online with HMRC but the work is done by an accountant, where does the cash incentive go? I assume to the accountants client (i.e. us!).......

I wold more than unhappy if it didn't, since for the accountant to keep it would be illegal (unless he charged you that amount as a service charge of course...)

Tax Rebate

Yes, it always goes to the client....i.e. you.

I presume you mean the PAYE Annual Retrun incentive? The rebate should go to the client!

Thanks for the replies.

Before I get back to my accountant, can the money be held in a tax account to offset future tax liability?

The Revenue prefer you to offset it against the next year's PAYE/NIC liabilities, so your accountant should deduct it automatically.
