Corporation Tax: check if you must amend your Company Tax Return

Find out if you need to correct a Company Tax Return for accounting periods ending between 8 March 2017 and 16 November 2017.

Overview

Some Corporation Tax legislation changed in the Finance (No 2) Act 2017. Although the changes received Royal Assent on 16 November 2017 they바카라 사이트™re effective from 8 March 2017 for appropriation to trading stock and 1 April for some other areas.
