Hi,
I signed up to the MTD pilot scheme for non VAT businesses some years ago but have come to regret it.
Quickfile works great for me and does create quarterly MTD reports but will not submit them until the full rollout of MTD.
As the date for that keeps being put back I now have loads of ‘overdue’ reports flagged on my HMRC account.
I have tried to tell HMRC I want opt back out of the pilot but with no response.
I have been submitting my returns and paying my tax as I previously did but I am concerned I am building up potential fines for the future.
Hi Beth , thanks again for your reply,
No I haven’t had any VAT related info . Isn’t a VAT no. the definition of being VAT registered?
After signing up in 2018 ( when the full roll out was planned to be in 2019 ) the next time
I logged on to HMRC it just said “You have chosen to submit using software”
and started expecting the quarterly reports and marking them overdue as they expired.
The Covid /Brexit crisis has created the perfect excuse for lack of communication from HMRC.
I am completely in the dark as to my position. I have even considered ceasing to trade and then starting up again without this worrying uncertainty.
