Hi John S,
An agent should not need your log in details for your goverment gateway account.
The procedure should be that they will request agent authority digitally via their Agent account and would therefore never require your log in details.
If you believe they are acting fraudulently then please report them using the following link:
Report tax fraud or avoidance to HMRC
Thank you.

Hi Vostromo,
The personal allowances for the current tax year 2024/2025 are £12570. If your only income is your pension of £18601.07 then the taxable amount you have quoted is correct on the tax code of 1257L.
The tax due for any particular year is all dependant on the tax code in operation.
You can view your tax code breakdown online on the personal tax account. Personal tax account: sign in or set up for information on tax rates and allowances please see: Income Tax rates and allowances for current and previous tax years.
Thank you.

Hi dessy10,
We would need to access your tax records to find the reason an 'in year adjustment' has arisen. You can view and update your estimated income from your pensions online on the personal tax account, Personal tax account: sign in or set up If you still feel the adjustment is incorrect after updating your estimated income please contact the helpline Contact HMRC.
Thank you.

Hi billy888
The reliefs due are based on your income in the tax year that the bond matures, so the interest over both years is taxable in the tax year you can access it.
Thank you.

Hi Sue
There would be no tax implcations in doing this.
Thank you.

Hi nofuse1971,
HMRC can only give general advice in this forum and we cannot comment on scenarios real or imagined. If you have a detailed question, you will need to contact the PAYE helpline and speak to one of my colleagues.
Thank you.

Hi gouldec,
Tax relief at source.
You state your gross pay is £89175 and your taxable pay is £68805, so the difference (£20370) is paid to your pension before your employer calculates your tax liability. This means that your pension payment has received tax relief 'at source' and no further tax relief is due.  Instead of calculating the tax due on your gross pay (£89175), your employer has calculated the tax using the figure (68805) after deducting your pension payment, so you have not had to pay any tax on you £20370 pension payment.  
Tax relief after tax paid.
If tax relief is not given at source, then your are taxed on your gross pay £89175 minus personal allowance £12570, which gives taxable income of £76605.  Of this (£37700+£25462 = £63163) is taxable at 20% and £13442 is taxable at 40%, making the tax payable £18009.40.  Your pension provider claims 20% relief from HMRC on £20370, so that you get 20% relief throught the pension scheme and 20% being taxed at basic rate and not higher rate.
With method 1, you pay less tax but only pay £20370 to your penson. With option 2 you pay more tax, but pay £25462 into your pension. This is made up of £20370 (80%) plus £5092 (20%) or (£20370/80*100 = £25462) claimed from HMRC by your pension provider.
Thank you.

Hi rabbitinheadlights confused,
Apologies for misunderstanding, the process you follow for claiming deposits depends on the type of declaration. A Bill of Discharge will be submitted to National Imports Relief Unit for the Inward Processing Relief ones.
Discharging your goods when using authorisation by declaration
For Temporary Admissions you would contact National Temporary Admissions team at: ntis@hmrc.gov.uk directly. 
For quotas, it will be either NDRC via a c285 or NIDAC (customsaccountingrepayments@hmrc.gov.uk) depending if its been brought to account or not. 
Thank you.

Hi hea.chan Chan,
GBPR is no longer valid code for customs declarations, if an importer is a private individual then declarant needs to use their details such as name and address.
DE 3/15 Importer Name and Address (Box 8 — Importer/ Consignee)
You can check the documents required to import these commodities by visiting trade tariff UK.
Trade Tariff: look up commodity codes, duty and VAT rates.
Thank you.
