UK Tax | Company - Allow change of CT600 date
Xero Tax pulls in the dates for the accounts from Companies House and assumes that the dates for the tax return will be the same. This might not always be the case - my example is due to the leap year causing problems
I filed returns to Companies House and HMRC to include 29 Feb as the guidance suggested using my previous software. This was all accepted fine but now I am unable to file a CT600 using Xero tax because Companies House have the year starting on 29 Feb but HMRC have it on 1 Mar.
There is no option for me to amend the CT600 filing dates to file correctly within Xero Tax so I had to pay for alternative software to complete the filing.
