Here is what you can expect and how we can help you.
A letter from HMRC will almost certainly feel unwelcome, intrusive and unsettling. You may not understand why you have been contacted, what you are being asked for or how you should respond. Any anxiousness is entirely understandable, given that your finances and wellbeing are potentially under threat.
How you communicate with HMRC, from the very first letter, is important.
The unexpected
People rarely ‘expect’ a letter from HMRC. While it’s in your interest to cooperate, this does not necessarily mean agreeing to their every request so it’s always good practice to seek advice before you reply.
