VAT Return. Am I in trouble?

[dimazigel]

My accountant submitted VAT return and looks like figures are wrong
Box 6 says: your total sales excluding VAT.
They submitted 25200 which 21000 + 4200 VAT
Boxes 3 and 5: VAT 3402 which is 13.5% and fine

Will I be fined? What should I do? Call to HMRC immediately?
Change an accountant?

Although the official VAT Form text indicates sales excluding VAT, these Flat Rate Scheme Box 6 Figures are actually shown inclusive of VAT, in accordance with HMRC guidance.

Why don't you ask your accountant what he has done. There could be a perfectly reasonable explaination. If there isn't he can correct it and advise on the outcome. Why pay for one and not use it?

Good question and I agree with Joeman.

Haiving just submitted my first FRS VAT return last night I'lll just add to the WHS crowd.

ps. Dunno why i waited so long to go FRS. I spent a fair bit last quarter thinking the FRS would come in this quarter and still was £700 better off.

What who said? The OP? Wrong quote attached to WHS I think.

I think he means that he agrees with everyone else in the thread who have provided answers to the question raised by the OP.
