HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) have published 3 further toolkits to help agents avoid common errors when completing clients’ returns.

The toolkits are downloadable from http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/agents/prereturn-support-agents.htm, and cover:

• VAT Input Tax
• Inheritance Tax
• Expenses and benefits from employment

• Capital Gains Tax for land and building
• Marginal Small Companies relief
• Private and Personal expenditure
• Capital Allowances for plant and machinery
• Capital Gains Tax for Trust and Estates (supplement)
• Trust and Estates

Interest in these initial toolkits has been high with over 21,000 downloads of these toolkits from the HMRC website in the first 3 months.

HMRC intend to publish a series of these toolkits to cover the areas of tax which they consider, based on their compliance activities, represent high risk of error for agents.

The toolkits are entirely voluntary.
