Nichola's SME Tax W-update 21 August 2020
Hello
This time, we have some updates for the self-employed, employers, agents and anyone with outstanding loan charge issues. For parents, we look at more 'reasonable excuses' for failing to declare High-Income Child Benefit Charge (HICBC) and we have our usual review of topical tax cases.
HICBC: Can ignorance ever be a reasonable excuse?
Three recent First Tier Tribunal (FTT) decisions consider whether ignorance of the law is a reasonable excuse for failing to notify charges under the High Income Child Benefit charge.
DIY claim date decided by certificate of completion

Nichola's SME Tax W-update 13 August 2020
Hello
I thought that this week would be quite quiet from an editorial point of view, but far from it. In this time's web-update, our highlights are our latest Company Tax update, news of the Jobs Retention Bonus, a useful VAT decision from the Upper Tribunal for online agencies and an updated guide to the taxation of cryptocurrences and cryptoassets.
COVID-19: Job Retention Bonus - on hold
On 5 November 2020, the government announced an extension to the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme (CJRS) to 31 March 2021. Because of this, the policy intent of the Job Retention Bonus’ (JRB) falls away.
The JRB will not now be paid in February 2021. Further updates are awaited from the government.
