Example 1 Janice is both an employee and self employed, her tax liability for 2021/22 was as follows:
For 2022/23 her total income tax liability was £14,000 with £2,000 being deducted at source. She
had a class 4 NIC liability of £2,500 and a capital gains tax liability of £1,700
Show how her 2022/23 liability will be settled and determine the total amount of tax to be paid on January 31, 2024. Ignore Class 2 NIC
2. Interest on tax 2.1. Late payments (a)
Interest is charged on late payment of tax at a rate of 3.25%.
For 2022/23:
(b)
Interest charged is not tax deductible for individuals.
(c)
In addition late payments of tax will attract a penalty as follows:
‣
If tax is paid more than one month late there will be a penalty of 5% of the amount due.
‣
Further penalties of 5% will be charged where tax is unpaid after six months and then
again twelve months.
Note: The penalties only apply to the balancing payment, and not payments on account. They therefore cover income tax, NIC and capital gains tax paid late. 2.2. Repayment If tax is repaid, HMRC pay interest at a rate of 0.5% p.a. from 31 January, or if later, the date of
original payment.
Interest received is not taxable for an individual.
