Ostrich Syndrome...

[snagged]

I'm pretty good at dealing with things generally... the one thing I have a real 'head in the sand' attitude to is filing my tax return on time! The last deadline is this coming Wednesday, otherwise a �100 fine... every year I leave until two days before this deadline and panic madly... what an idiot... every year after the panic I promise myself 'I have a whole year to do the next one so do it in July and chill come January'... hasn't happened in 10 years... should be doing it now instead of being here... but hey... there's always tmrw! Anyone else the same (make me feel better!)... or are you all hyper organised?...

[ummmm]

?

[ummmm]

Sorry snagged.....it wouldn't let me post.....I will now read your question.....

[ummmm]

No....I'm the same...and I do peoples tax returns for a living!!!!

I have a busy day tommorrow!!!!

[snagged]

do you?.... really?... how much do you charge?... to do tax returns that is... ;o)

[ummmm]

Lol....not a lot, depends how much is involved. One man band....�50 - �100

[ummmm]

Saying that it could be cheaper. Some just give me the form to fill in

[snagged]

God, I'm feeling ill just thinking about it! (frantically searches AB for Qs to answer... any Qs!)...

Its probably the only thing we are organised about and thats only because hubby would faint at an extra �100 ! I keep all the receipts etc. in order all year, a very nice person like ummmm does the complicated bit and tells hubby how big the cheque has to be. In fact the only thing hubby has do is sign on the dotted line...... oh and earn the money...... or not as the case might be!

Just do it.

[ummmm]

My clients tend to get a rebate

I know Panic, I know....

Yir Tax Office might be closed on Wednesday because we Civil Servants are on strike that day. If it has no Post Box, I understand HMRC will be allowing you extra time to deliver the Return.

[ummmm]

How much work is involved snagged?

Do you fly all over the world for a living or are you putting in a couple of petrol receipts?

[ummmm]

Or...register on-line and you get an extra 7 days.

Too late for this one though....
