I paid myself a dividend on 02/04/2012 (My only dividend between 6 Apr 11 & 5 Apr 12).
I was expecting this to add to the tax bill for 2011/2012 self-assessment. After all, the form clearly says "This notice requires you, by law, to make a return of your taxable income and capital gains, and any documents requested, for the year from 6 April 2011 to 5 April 2012.
But my accountants say that their software only picks up payments made up to 31st March 2012. And so presumably they would forget about the 02/04/2012 dividend until the 2012/2013 SA.
Is it correct what they've done / can they get away with it?
Thanks
