The Electrician Tax Safe Plan Campaign gives a special time limited opportunity for electricians to pay any tax that they owe with lower penalties.  The opportunity is intended to cover:

• Genuine mistakes
• Careless errors
• Deliberate withholding of information

 

An Electrician for these purposes is anyone who installs, maintains and tests electrical systems and equipment.

Electricians can come forward at any time between 14 February 2012 and 15 May 2012 to tell HMRC that they will be making a disclosure. They will then be given until 15 August 2012 to make their disclosure and full payment.

 
To make a disclosure electricians will need to:

• Apply Online by completing a form at: www.hmrc.gov.uk/campaigns/notify.htm

• Ring HMRC on 0845 601 5041

 

After 15 May 2012 HMRC will target anyone who has not come forward who they believe may owe tax.
