We nearly missed one because HMRC don’t send one and neither does our accountant.

Xero, what are you waiting for?

Just missed my second VAT return deadline. : ( This simple feature would be immensely valuable!

I shouldn’t have to log in daily once a quarter to check whether the VAT is ready for submission, it is a waste of my time.

Our accountant does our bank rec and prepares the VAT submission, but we do the submission ourselves, and have to make a point of logging in daily once a quarter to check whether the VAT is ready for submission, which is significantly time wasting.

This ought to be a minmum given the high price we pay xero compared with Quick Books.

Shocking this is not available in Xero.

Quickbooks customers don’t have the concern of missing a VAT return:

With all the so called automation and AI I would have thought that this could be a basic feature.

This is critical for us with multiple VAT returns across 25 companies with varying periods; please can you add this function to prevent delayed, missed returns and possible fines?

I have come across various scenarios where the return period was changed without customer notification and by the time it was picked up, it was already too late. It would be very useful to have this function in Xero.

Would be very useful and re-assuring to have!

This is such a basic requirement i am amazed that it is not a standard feature.
We need to be able to set up VAT Submission prompts so we know that it is due as we don't get prompts from HMRC but we do get their fines if we missed the deadline bu 1 day!

Yes please. this feature would be really beneficial and am surprised Xero doesn't have this already.

Yes please I could do with this

There is nothing that shows you on the Client HQ dashboard if there are any problems. I had a client with a late payment, I only knew because I had gone into his account to check something else. Had I not done that I wouldn't have been able to sort it out. Something on the HQ dashboard should tell us.

Yes please, I am surprised it's not a feature already. It's very important. Thanks.

Is this a feature yet? I could really do with VAT and CIS submission reminders

This is a very obvious and important feature. Thanks

Can’t believe this isn’t already a feature

Yes definitely urgent along with email reminders for Draft recurring invoices and draft recurring Bills waiting to be authorised.

This is a critical feature as Graeme says. The same functionality could be applied to PAYE returns.
