Update on the Email Pilot for Agents

The above pilot has now been extended until 31 March 2013 and further expanded to include the submission of forms SA1 and CWF1.

The pilot was originally launched in March 2012 to test the benefits of an email channel for agents to contact HMRC. HMRC state that by the end of October over 1,000 emails had been received and resolved within 15 days turnaround time.

Agents taking part in the pilot can now carry out the following in addition to the submission of forms SA1 and CWF1:

  • submission of form 64-8
  • setting up and closing Self-Assessment records
  • requests for Self-Assessment information
  • chasing Self-Assessment repayments
  • requests to change tax codes
  • requests for PAYE information
