23,000 Tax Returns Outstanding

Friday, 24 May 2019 08:17

More than 23,000 tax returns still need to be handed in, with just a week to go until the filing deadline.

Personal income tax returns have to reach the La Motte Street offices by 6pm on Friday 31st May.

Revenue Jersey is urging islanders to go to gov.je/mytaxreturn for advice on how to fill them out.

Online videos created in English, Portuguese and Polish have so far had more than 107,000 views.

Printed guides are available from Parish Halls.

Cyril Le Marquand House is closed, and taxpayers cannot deliver their return there.

A pre-paid envelope was included with every return this year - which can be used provided it is posted in time to be delivered by 31st May.

The fine for missing the deadline is £250.

Islanders are reminded that Revenue Jersey staff can give information and advice but are not allowed to fill in taxpayers’ returns for them.
