HMRC changes self-assessment registration for those not self-employed

HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) has announced a change to the way that taxpayers who are not self-employed register for self-assessment.

Before the changes, all new self-assessment registrations for the self-employed were dealt with by a central HMRC team, while registrations for customers who were not self-employed were dealt with in local HMRC offices.

However, as from 21 September the self-assessment team is to deal with all new self-assessment registrations.

In practical terms, this means that taxpayers who are not self-employed no longer have to write to their local tax office in order to get a tax return and register for self-assessment.

Instead, they can register by ringing the self-assessment helpline on 0845 900 0444 or by completing a new form (SA1).

The new form SA1 has been designed to help those who aren’t self-employed to provide all the information HMRC needs. Once this is done, HMRC registers taxpayers for self-assessment and sends out the right tax return pages.

Anyone who is newly self-employed should telephone the helpline on 0845 915 4515 or complete form CWF1.
