The number of people paying for their self-assessment tax return via HMRC’s app has more than trebled compared to this time last year.
Recent HMRC figures show that between April and September this year, 97,365 people used the app to settle their tax bill for the 2022 to 2023 tax year – more than 3 times the £34.6 million paid by 36,467 customers during the same period last year.

“It gives them the flexibility and convenience they need – as well as peace of mind that their Self Assessment is sorted. Go to GOV.UK and search ‘HMRC app’ to find out more.”
