HMRC Enquiries/Investigations
Report
A tax investigation by the HMRC can be a stressful and worrying experience.
HMRC can now review cases on a 'sample basis'; consequently, tax investigations have become more frequent.
We have a wealth of experience in dealing with Inland Revenue investigations, including dealing with the Special Civil Investigations department, whether they are enquiries into an individual's Tax Return under the Self-Assessment regime, more detailed enquiries or employer-related investigations into PAYE and P11D compliance.
