To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, pursuant to his Answer of 11 May 2018 to Question 141715 on Taxation: Self-Assessment, how many of the 746,000 self-assessment tax returns that were outstanding and filed after 31 January 2018 were estimated not to have been liable to pay a fine.

HMRC automatically applies a penalty or fine on any self-assessment return that is submitted late. Customers can object or appeal against a penalty levied for late submission. If HMRC accept the explanation for the late return the penalty will be cancelled.
HMRC does not have an estimate of how many customers appealed or objected, or how many penalties or fines were cancelled.

The Government provides comprehensive guidance available on the GOV.UK website to help small businesses complete their tax returns correctly.

HMRC also provides additional help and support through a variety of other channels - including helpsheets, YouTube videos, webinars and dedicated phone lines.

Several of my constituents who are highly skilled migrants made entirely legitimate and timely changes to their tax returns and are now facing removal by the Home Office under immigration rule 322(5). Will a Treasury Minister confirm that people should make entirely legitimate changes to their tax returns? Will they also have a conversation
with their Home Office colleagues to prevent these highly skilled contributors from being removed from the UK?

Will a Treasury Minister confirm that people should make entirely legitimate changes to their tax returns? Will they also have a conversation

The answer to the hon. Lady’s question is that people should clearly continue to make appropriate changes to their tax returns. I reassure her and the House that Treasury Ministers and HMRC officials are working closely across Government—particularly with the Home Office—on the issues that she raised in order to ensure that we get these matters right.

To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, how many people submitting tax returns missed the 31st January 2018 deadline; and how much money was accrued to the public purse through fines as a result of late payments.
To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, how many people submitting tax returns missed the 31st January 2018 deadline; and how much money was accrued to the public purse through fines as a result of late payments.
As at 31 January 2018, there were just under 746,000 Self-Assessment returns still outstanding. Not all these customers will pay a penalty, as there will be some who will have a justified reason for not filing by the deadline.
HMRC does not collect details of the total amount of money accrued from penalties as a result of late payments.
To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether his Department is taking steps to ensure that the level of tax returns submitted (a) on and (b) before the 31 January deadline is greater than 93 per cent.
To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether his Department is taking steps to ensure that the level of tax returns submitted (a) on and (b) before the 31 January deadline is greater than 93 per cent.
In 2018 HMRC achieved just over 93% of returns filed on or before the deadline. In planning for the Self-Assessment deadlines for 2019, HM Revenue and Customs will look at lessons learned from 2018 to consider ways of increasing the filing percentage for the 31st January 2019 deadline.

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, if his Department will assess the potential merits of recommending adding to the school curriculum financial education which includes advice on filling out tax forms.
The Department has introduced a rigorous new mathematics curriculum, which provides young people with the knowledge and financial skills to make important decisions about mortgages, loan repayments, the importance of personal budgeting, money management and financial risks.
In 2014, for the first time, financial literacy was made statutory within the national curriculum as part of the Citizenship curriculum for 11 to 16 year olds. Pupils are taught the functions and uses of money, the importance of personal budgeting, money management and the need to understand financial risk. Schools can include teaching about completing tax returns should they wish to, based on the needs of their pupils.

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, pursuant to the Answer of 13 September 2017 to Question 8509 on Electronic Government: Proof of Identity, what the average success rate for people using Gov.UK Verify for tax self-assessment has been in each month since July 2016.
To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, pursuant to the Answer of 13 September 2017 to Question 8509 on Electronic Government: Proof of Identity, what the average success rate for people using Gov.UK Verify for tax self-assessment has been in each month since July 2016.
It is the policy of GOV.UK Verify not to track individual users, including the services which they access. Building a model that respects privacy is essential if users are to place and maintain their trust in identity assurance.
PQ 8509 relates to verified user identities. ‘Success’ in the context of verified user identities is measured as the percentage of people with a verified identity who are then ‘matched’ with the departmental service they are attempting to access. The matching rates vary for each service depending on the data held and the matching needs of that service. For some services, for example Universal Credit, it is required that the user must match an existing record within the service. This is not required for all services, as the user may not previously have accessed that service, for example claiming for redundancy payments.
To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, how many self-assessment penalty fines were revoked in (a) 2014-15, (b) 2015-16, (c) 2016-17 and (d) 2017-18.

The information requested is not available. HMRC does not keep a central count of penalties discharged in each year.
