ok being lazy! Do I need to request paper returns for the reporting of dividend tax (split between old and new regs) or can any of the software (eg and preferably just now, Taxfiler) cope with the calcs?

Oh what a donkey!
lol. Edited on the other, but happy to show how daft I am. Funny how my predictive text picked up that from 'request', but serves me right for not checking what I write.
How much is QBO?
Yes - request a paper return is what I meant!

I thought you were just horsing around! Seriously I couldn't work out what equestrian meant in the context, never even thought of request, although that was the most obvious in hindsight.

He he! Quickbooks online is free. You get a free QBO account for yourself too, should you wish to do your own bookkeeping within the cloud...lmao.But yeah, its worth checking out.

Thanks for the QBO and Taxfiler tip Johnny. One last lazy Q on that one - is it full access to Taxfiler so can do several companies and self assessments as usual, or restricted to one of each?
Might just set it up to get the freebie bit. Intuit do have a habit of increasing their fees too, so got to balance it with - cancelling the Taxfiler thing and having to set it up again within the 2 year period clause thing they have.

I see where you're coming from with the question - yes I assume they'd have to be a QBO client - I will try later to be sure - that's likely to be the catch!!

Has anybody actually got an answer to my question or are we just going to keep getting horsey puns? Yes I know, it was my own fault, but I do need to know, so any help will be appreciated....and reward with a carrot or a cube of sugar!

I don't think I understand the question? Do you ask if you can amend a paper return with an electronic submission?
*Or is it that you are asking if a dividend can be reported over FA2015 and FA2016 (new dividend, no credit) with the software.
I'm stumped because I know it can't be a basic question as it is yourself that is asking.
*I would say yes. Depending upon how much spare time you have, if you (I should change my name to Mr. Software trial) download taxcalc and have a free play...
That's probably of absolutely no use whatsoever mind :)

Thanks Johnny - dont worry. Yes its to do with divis under the different FAs, although Ive also seen some commentary re issues with order of deductions and therefore calculations being thrown out.Think Im probably just overthinking stuff before I even get to it properly and will have to find a few minutes to have a play around with the system and see what it lets me do, but sooner rather than later!

Is it to cover a base period? I assumed so (which is why I didn't answer because I don't know) If not were you asking if Taxfiler would handle the new regime? I assume it will, in fact I'd be extremely worried if it didn't.
Going back to base periods, but having never used them, it's probably best to work it out manually then see if taxfiler agrees? If it does bingo, if not then either different software or a paper return
Could you use the HMRC online, rather than taxfiler, and see if that handles it the way you want it to?
