I made two payments on account for year 23/24 but they have not been included in my tax return. Should I be inputting this amount and where does it go?

Hi, No - your Self Assessment calculation (produced before you submit your return) will show you how much tax you owe for the 23/24 tax year. Once you submit your return, any payments on account or overpayments remaining on your record will be be deducted from the amount of tax calculated.
Thank you.

When does this get deducted?

After however long it takes for HMRC's systems to process the return, I guess... But you don't necessarily need to wait for that - if you are working on or have just submitted a return, and want to know the actual amount you need to pay by 31st January, you can take the 2023/24 balancing payment and first payment on account for the new 2024/25 year (if any) from the return, and manually subtract any credit on your tax account including payments on account for 2023/24. The info about your account can be found under "View account" in the Self Assessment portion of your online account.

Hi ,
When you submit your Self Assessment tax return you will received a calculation, SA302.

The calculation will not take into account the payments on account made.

The payments on account will be taken into account on your statement.

The payments on account made will be deducted from the balance calculated on your SA302.

Thank you .

How long (after submitting the tax return) will it take to receive or view the accurate statement with the payments on account deducted?

Hi Roma Pearson
Please see guidance available at Pay your Self Assessment tax bill: Check your payment has been received.
