Personal tax attachment
How do I attach a calculation (CGT) to a personal tax return? It's currently not possible to attach and save personal tax documents to Personal tax that will not be submitted to HMRC.
I’ve included a link to Xero Product Ideas where you can view and support current ideas or create a new one to share your thoughts.
1 voteHi, thanks for raising this idea - I'll switch it across to delivered as this is something that can be achieved in Xero Tax.
To include include your own calculations for CGT in the Personal Tax return. You will first need to add the Capital Gains schedule and check the box to indicate that you are including your own calculations.
You can then head to the attachments page and upload your calculations.
The Generate a personal tax return support article has information on how schedules can be added to the personal tax return.

Xero Tax(AU) | Add Division 293 to tax estimation sheet
Add the calculation of our clients Div 293 liability to the tax estimation sheet.
96 votesHi everyone, as noted by another user on this idea this has been available since the 2020 tax return year.
The division 293 tax calculation can be calculated by creating a Superannuation contribution worksheet on the individual tax return. Once the worksheet is completed, on the estimate click on the 'Show fields' button next to the heading 'Other amounts that may affect the tax estimate'

Xero Tax - Share Capital note
Share capital note - in many accounts production packages there is a share capital note. It would be good to have this available in Xero Tax. If not, please could you add the functionality to add a custom note, which would enable us to add a narrative and a simple table.
2 votesHi there, I'm pleased to let you know that a share capital note is now available! Thanks for sharing and supporting this idea 🙌

NZ Tax - Prevent return finalisation when PIE exceeds what's claimable
In a non resident return it would be good if Xero could prevent finalisation of the return where the PIE tax credit is in excess of what is claimable under the Tax on Taxable Income/Taxable Income x PIE Income formula. Thanks
1 voteHey Claire, rounding back to your idea here I wanted to confirm that when running an IR3NR return there is already a warning that'll appear if PIE tax deducted exceeds tax on taxable income.
This will prevent the return being filed in Xero until the figures have been amended.

AU Tax | ITR - Managed fund distribution worksheet - discount capital gain prefilled incorrectly
Re Managed fund distribution worksheet, the field 'Current year capital gains - Discount method (Grossed-up amount)' was prefilled incorrectly.
It's prefilled with net amount instead of the grossed-up one, results in validation error, need to manually edited it.
It could be great if xero can fix this, thanks :)
24 votesHi team, apologies for not returning to this idea sooner. You'll find the Managed fund worksheet now has the ability to state whether the capital gains is reported as Gross or Net which will allow the Capital Gains Tax worksheets created to be correct.

Xero Tax (UK) | Directors report - Include Directors' responsibilities statement
Please could you include the Directors responsibilities paragraph in the directors report as this is best practice.

AU Tax | Company Tax Return - Partnership & Trust Distribution Worksheet
It would be good to have a version of the "Partnership and trust" worksheet from the individual tax return in the CTR as well. This would make it significantly easier to enter the correct amounts at 6D and 6E.
Having the appropriate amounts entered in the worksheet flow through to the capital gains schedule and the franking credits section of the calculation statement would also be advantageous as it would remove a lot of manual work associated with these items.
39 votesHey team, we've recently introduced the Trust Income Schedule in Xero Tax(AU). With the Trust Income Schedule if a trust or beneficiary relationship has been set up in the client’s screen, these distributions save automatically from the trust return into the receiving return’s Trust Income Schedule - You can find out more on these changes on Xero Central.

Personal Tax (UK) | Add HMRC Details & Payment Reference to Payment Report
More complete information added to the Payment Report for personal tax, so that the Payment Reference and HMRC bank details are included as well as the amounts to be paid. Then this one page can be sent to the client and avoids a lot of additional time spent sending them separate info on how to pay and what the reference is. BTC do this really well
5 votesHi everyone, we wanted to come back and confirm that as part of the compliance release for the tax year 2023/24 the payment details were added to the payment report. This should be visible to you now in the personal tax product.
The payment details default to HMRC Cumbernauld but If you'd like to change this, you can go to the Other return information schedule and "HMRC payment details" to select HMRC Shipley.

UK Tax | CT600 - R&D tax repayments
R&D tax repayments
Currently with Xero Tax you can only request a credit towards the tax liability and not a cash repayment. Can Xero please amend this so that those that are amending CT submissions to claim R&D, can request to have the cash repayment rather than the reduction. it needs to be populated in CT600 box 865 (currently ).6 votesThanks for your contribution to this idea everyone, and apologies we've not updated you here sooner.
Although we don't support the CT600 box 865 we do support boxes 875, 880 and 885 which are automatically populated with the payable R&D, RDEC or Creative tax credit as applicable when the R&D schedule has been completed and the company is able to claim the repayment.
We added a lot of functionality to Xero Tax last year(2024) around R&D to stay on top of legislative changes, such as those in June 2024 to bring in Enhanced R&D Intensive Support (ERIS) and support the merged RDEC scheme.

NZ Tax - Show Checksum# on front screen of returns
It would be great if the checksum # showed on the front screen of tax returns. When signed returns come back from clients out tax administrator must check this number matches before marking as signed. Currently they need to print and view to check. It would be so much quicker if this number showed on the front screen of the tax return somewhere.
3 votesHi all, thank you for your engagement with this idea. As part of our latest update, you will now see that the version number is displayed on the front of the tax return.

Xero Tax (UK) - Exclude Dividends note from filleted accounts
Xero HQ Filleted Accounts without Dividend Note
There should be a facility whereby the notes to the full accounts can be edited for the filleted accounts so that not all are disclosed at Companies House, such as, & very importantly the 'Dividend' note
16 votesHi everyone, thanks for your feedback on this idea. As part of our recent improvements to the notes & disclosures for FRS 1021a accounts, the dividends note is now included within the Directors report which isn't submitted to Companies House. We appreciate there is further work to do to maximise the flexibility here and always appreciate your feedback so please continue to add new ideas.

Personal Tax (UK) | Information pulling through from HQ
When you create a tax return for a client, the system doesn't pull through their address or email, this need to be automated from the info in HQ. Not sure why it doesn't pull through, when it pulls through NI number and UTR, why doesn't it pull through address or email, we have to physically select it from drop down box
1 voteHi Bonnie, happy to share that the work here has now been delivered. You'll find that the clients Address, Telephone number and Email address should automatically populate in the appropriate field in Personal Tax. 😁

AU Tax | SMSF Returns - Import from BGL/Class
Allow SMSF returns to include an option for import from BGL/Class and to generate a PAYG estimate worksheet
