Advance assurance pilot confirmed
There have been a number of changes to how research and development tax credits are claimed in recent years. HMRC has now confirmed that a pilot of a new clearance procedure will begin later this year. What do we know so far?
The Chancellor has confirmed that the tax cut will not go ahead, due to the distractions this policy has caused. From 6 April 2023 those earning over £150,000 will continue to pay the top rate of 45% income tax. However, due to other planned tax cuts, those with income over £150,000 will pay just 38.1% income tax on dividends from 6 April 2023 (currently 39.35%), meaning there will still be an incentive (albeit a smaller one) to delay dividends until on or after 6 April 2023.
The Chancellor is set to announce his medium-term fiscal plan on 23 November.
