Chiar dacă foarte mulți au și uitat că s-au bucurat de ajutoarele și fondurile primite de la guvern în perioada pandemiei Covid, și mulți le-au luat pe nașpa, era de așteptat ca statul să nu uite și să încerce să își recupereze cele peste £10 miliarde pierdute prin fraude COVID. Mai întâi cu frumosul, lansând în septembrie 2025 o fereastră limitată pentru restituirea fondurilor COVID, Voluntary Repayment Scheme – schema de restituire voluntară pentru persoanele fizice și companiile care au primit sprijin când nu ar fi trebuit, nu aveau nevoie sau sunt în default, prin care pot da înapoi de bunăvoie banii încasați necuvenit în timpul pandemiei, fără întrebări suplimentare.

Fereastra se închide la 31 decembrie 2025. După acestă dată, având în vedere măsurile pregătite și faptul că urmele digitale rămân permanent în sistem, vor aplica strict legea, cu sancțiuni, investigații civile și penale, descalificarea directorilor și proceduri oficiale de recuperare.

Dacă cineva dă banii înapoi de bunăvoie, asta nu îl ferește de controale, investigații sau de eventuale măsuri legale, dar autoritățile vor ține cont de faptul că a ales să restituie banii.

Schema poate fi folosită de oricine a primit sprijin financiar în timpul pandemiei, inclusiv prin Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme, Bounce Back Loan Scheme, Self-Employment Income Support Scheme, Coronavirus Business Interruption Loan Scheme sau finanțări specifice pe sectoare. Este relevantă în special pentru persoanele sau companiile care poate au înțeles greșit criteriile de eligibilitate la acel moment sau care acum cred că o parte din sprijin a fost solicitat sau păstrat în mod greșit. Directorii de companii ar trebui să fie atenți, mai ales acolo unde fondurile au fost accesate în numele firmei.

Pentru cei care nu sunt siguri ce schemă au folosit pentru a primi finanțările COVID-19, sau de la ce organizație, puteți trimite un email către Voluntary Repayment Scheme la voluntaryrepayment@cabinetoffice.gov.uk și veți primi răspuns în 5 zile lucrătoare. Ce trebuie să menționați în mail: numele schemei (dacă îl știți), ce tip de sprijin a fost( împrumut, grant, benefit), data aproximativă când ați primit fondurile, numele creditorului sau al instituției care a emis fondurile (dacă este cazul). Nu trimiteți alte documente sau informații personale.

Modul în care se pot da banii înapoi depinde de schema pe care ați folosit-o:

Important:

folosiți doar adresele de mail oficiale și paginile guvernului și nu cele de pe social media care vă promit ajutor sau vă sperie să plătiți prin ei. Evitați să intrați pe alte site-uri, emailuri sau să răspundeți la numere de telefon care imită serviciile guvernului.
Unele site-uri, emailuri sau numere de telefon imită serviciile oficiale al guvernului, dar nu sunt și te fac să plătești pentru lucruri care ar fi gratuite sau mai ieftine dacă ai folosi serviciul oficial guvernamental.

 Măsuri pentru cei care nu mai locuiesc în UK și plătesc voluntar Nino

Comunicate, Comunicate Britanice, Finanțe, GOV.UK, Informari, informatii utile, Pensie UK, Probleme fiscale, Romania, Români în Anglia, , , , , , , ,

Pentru că statul vrea să se asigure că persoanele care își construiesc pensia de stat din afara UK au o legătură suficientă cu această țară și plătesc un preț corect pentru a avea pensie, în cadrul Budgetului 2025, au fost anunțate și schimbări privind persoanele care locuiesc sau lucrează în străinătate și plătesc voluntar la National Insurance.

Din 6 aprilie 2026, nu se vor mai putea plăti contribuții voluntare Class 2 la National Insurance pentru perioadele în care se află în afara UK. Doar contribuțiile voluntare Class 3 vor fi disponibile pentru anii fiscali 2026–2027 și după.

Vor fi afectați de această măsură:
-cei care lucrează în străinătate și plătesc sau plănuiesc să plătească contribuții voluntare Class 2 la National Insurance
-cei care vor să plătească voluntar la Nino pentru perioadele în care nu se află în UK, după 6 aprilie 2026.
Această schimbare nu afectează nicio contribuție voluntară care poate fi plătită pentru perioadele în străinătate înainte de 6 aprilie 2026.

Din aprilie 2026, pentru a aplica să plătești voluntar Nino Class 3 la National Insurance trebuie să fi locuit în UK timp de 10 ani la rând și să fi plătit cel puțin 10 ani de contribuții la National Insurance cât timp ai stat în UK.
Aplicațiile vor continua să fie făcute prin depunerea formularului CF83.

Dacă în prezent plătești contribuții Class 2 la Nino din străinătate, HMRC o să îți scrie dacă ești afectat, începând din iulie 2026. Dacă plătești prin Direct Debit, nu îl anula — HMRC va colecta ultima ta plată pentru anul fiscal 2025–2026 la data de 10 iulie 2026.
Dacă deja plătești contribuții Class 3 la National Insurance în străinătate, nu trebuie să reaplici pentru a continua să plătești.

Vor fi publicate detalii și ghiduri suplimentare la o dată ulterioară.

**Clasele de contributii:

Class 1
se plătește de către angajați și angajatori în UK. angajatul plătește din salariu, angajatorul plătește separat partea lui. nu se plătește când persoana este în străinătate și nu are salariu supus NI în UK.

Class 2
se plătește de obicei de către self employed în UK. până la 5 aprilie 2026, poate fi plătită voluntar și de persoane care locuiesc sau lucrează în străinătate pentru perioadele petrecute în afara UK, ca să mențină anii de contribuție. de la 6 aprilie 2026, nu mai poate fi plătită voluntar pentru perioade în străinătate.

Class 3
se plătește voluntar de către persoane care vor să acopere goluri în istoricul de contribuții pentru pensia de stat. nu este condiționată de self employed sau employment. din 6 aprilie 2026 va fi singura opțiune voluntară pentru persoanele care sunt în străinătate.

Class 4
se plătește de către self employed din UK, calculată din profit. nu este relevantă pentru perioadele în străinătate și nu este voluntară.

HMRC începe să tragă datoriile fiscale neplătite, direct din contul bancar

Finanțe, GOV.UK, Informari, informatii utile, Povestiri din lumea noua, Români în Anglia, Viata in UK, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) reia din nou programul Direct Recovery of Debts pentru cei care aleg să nu-și plătească taxele, prin care are acces direct la conturile lor pentru a recupera sumele datorate, politică care fusese suspendată în timpul pandemiei de Covid-19.

Direct Recovery of Debts (DRD) îi permite HMRC să recupereze sumele datorate ca datorii fiscale ale persoanelor și firmelor, direct din conturile lor bancare și/sau din fonduri deținute în Cash Individual Savings Accounts (ISAs). Această metodă este folosită atunci când un individ sau o companie datorează £1,000 sau mai mult și își poate permite să plătească taxele pe care le datorează, dar alege să nu o facă.

Unele persoane necesită un stimulent sau o reamintire suplimentară pentru a plăti ceea ce datorează, iar un număr semnificativ de persoane plătesc odată ce sunt contactate.

Aceste măsuri se iau împotriva celor care au datorii stabilite, au depășit perioada în care puteau contesta datoria de plată și au ignorat în mod repetat încercările HMRC de a lua legătura cu ei. Oricine contestă suma datorată are dreptul automat de a face apel.

Fiecare debitor va primi o vizită față în față din partea agenților HMRC înainte ca datoriile lor să fie luate în considerare pentru recuperare prin DRD; această întâlnire va oferi ocazia de a identifica personal contribuabilul și a confirma că datoria îi aparține, de a explica debitorilor ce datorează, de ce sunt urmăriți pentru plată și a discuta plata datoriei și opțiuni pentru stingerea ei, iar pentru cei care se confruntă cu dificultăți financiare să li se ofere opțiunea unui plan de plată Time to Pay.

Debitorii care au primit această vizită față în față, nu au fost identificați ca vulnerabili, au suficienți bani în bancă și au refuzat în continuare să-și achite datoriile vor fi luați în considerare pentru recuperarea datoriei prin DRD.

Odată ce recuperarea datoriei a fost inițiată, există o perioadă de 30 de zile pentru ca datornicii să depună o contestație la HMRC. Banii vor fi reținuți în cont, dar nicio sumă nu va fi transferată până când această perioadă nu trece și se va lua o decizie asupra obiecțiilor în 30 de zile. Debitorii pot contesta decizia HMRC la un county court pe motive specificate, inclusiv dificultăți și drepturi ale terților.

Pentru cei care au dificultăți financiare reale în plata taxelor, fie datorită unui eveniment din viața lor sau pentru că firma lor are probleme și își dau seama că nu vor putea plăti la timp sau au nevoie de asistență suplimentară, trebuie să contacteze HMRC cât mai curând posibil. Un debitor care îndeplinește criteriile stricte pentru DRD, dar este considerat vulnerabil sau are nevoie de sprijin suplimentar, va fi exclus din DRD și va primi ajutor prin echipa de sprijin HMRC.

Dacă folosiți oricare dintre schemele prezentate pe liste sau scheme similare, HMRC vă sfătuiește insistent să vă retrageți din ele și să vă rezolvați problemele fiscale pentru a preveni acumularea unei datorii fiscale mari.

Dacă sunteți îngrijorat de posibilitatea de a fi implicat într-o schemă de evitare a taxelor, sau credeți că sunteți deja implicat și doriți să ieșiți dintr-o schemă de eveziune fiscală, contactați HMRC.

Dacă sunteți implicat în oricare dintre schemele de evitare a taxelor prezentate pe această pagină, sau recunoașteți oricare dintre promotori, intermediari, sau furnizori, trebuie să contactați HMRC cât mai curând posibil.

Există și alte scheme, promotori, intermediari și furnizori despre care HMRC nu poate publica informații în acest moment. Acest lucru se poate datora faptului că:

  • HMRC colectează informații despre promotor, intermediar, furnizor sau despre schemele de evitare a taxelor care sunt promovate
  • HMRC ia în considerare reprezentările unui promotor, intermediar sau furnizor
  • perioada de apel pentru ne retragerea unui stop notice nu s-a încheiat
  • HMRC nu are cunoștință despre schema de evitare a taxelor, promotor, intermediar sau furnizor

Dacă doriți să obțineți mai multe informații despre o companie sau directorii acesteia, puteți verifica Companies House.

Puteți raporta online la HMRC schemele de evitare a taxelor și persoanele care vă oferă aceste scheme, folosind serviciul report tax fraud or avoidance. Puteți trimite acest formular anonim. Nu trebuie să vă dați numele, adresa sau emailul.

Date of publication9 August 2023
Last updated22 May 2025
Legislation under which this scheme/promoter has been namedFinance Act 2022
How the scheme is claimed to workThe arrangements involve individuals providing their services to end clients or agencies through ABC Umbrella Limited as their employer. The individuals also enter an agreement with Krevit Ltd where individuals grant the right to enter an Annuity Agreement in exchange for payments (the Grantee Payments). The individuals receive payment from ABC Umbrella Limited. However, tax and National Insurance contributions (NICs) are only deducted on a small part of the amount. This is evidenced on the payslips and figures reported to HMRC. It is HMRC’s view that the larger amount, paid without tax or NICs deducted, is for the Grantee Payments, but paid by ABC Umbrella Limited on behalf of Krevit Ltd. It is also HMRC’s view that the Grantee Payments are additional disguised income for services provided by individuals through ABC Umbrella Limited, and the entire payment should therefore be subject to tax and NICs.
Any other information HMRC considers relevant to publish about these schemesHMRC have previously published Spotlight 60 guidance on agency workers and contractors employed by umbrella companies. HMRC has now allocated a scheme reference number (SRN) 60705829 to the arrangements on 26 July 2023 under section 311 Finance Act 2004 ‘Disclosure of Tax Avoidance Schemes’. Representatives of contractorteam.co.uk (CT), contact individuals, including some they have identified on social media websites. Often this includes emailing individuals using the following email address format: support(number)@contractorteam.co.uk. CT provide pay illustrations with their emails, offering potential employees the opportunity to maximise take-home pay. They make referrals to umbrella companies promoting tax avoidance schemes and request personal data to pass on to those umbrella companies.

Date of publication11 April 2024
Legislation under which this scheme/promoter has been namedFinance Act 2022
How the scheme is claimed to workScheme users enter into a contract of employment and an option grant agreement with AMS.

AMS also makes a second payment to scheme users, described as an ‘option grant’, with no tax or NICs deducted.
Any other information HMRC considers relevant to publish about these schemesHMRC’s view is that the option grant payments are no different to normal income, and tax and NICs are payable. HMRC have previously published information about the tax avoidance arrangements used by some umbrella companies Spotlight 60. HMRC are aware that some umbrella companies operate more than one scheme; for example, a standard compliant scheme and a non-compliant scheme. HMRC advise employees of AMS to familiarise themselves with the guidance and to satisfy themselves that the correct amount of tax is being deducted on their income. HMRC has evidence that AMS predominantly worked with recruitment agencies in the medical sector.

The end client pays the UK intermediary/agency for the scheme user’s services, who in turn pay the UK umbrella companies. Following the deduction of a fee, the UK umbrella companies pay the remaining amount to Adapt Limited. Adapt Limited pays a National Minimum Wage/National Living Wage salary to the scheme user subjected to Income Tax and National Insurance contributions (NICs) and a payment, described as a loan, pursuant to the loan agreement, which is made without deductions of Income Tax or NICs.

Legislation under which this scheme/promoter has been namedDisclosure of Tax Avoidance Schemes (DOTAS)
Statutory Provisions on which the tax advantage is basedSection 455 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 (CTA)
How the scheme is claimed to work — summaryThere is usually a pre-existing loan between a director/shareholder (the ‘scheme user’) and their company. The user signs an ‘option agreement’ with the company. In return for signing the option agreement, the company releases the user from their obligation to repay the loan. The ‘option’ enters the user into an annuity agreement with the company, under which the user is required to pay an annuity to the company for life, if exercised. However, an ‘early encashment’ mechanism within the annuity agreement enables the company to cancel its option rights for a nominal fee. The company will usually cancel the option so that the scheme users do not pay the annuity or loan repayment. Therefore, the company does not pay Corporation Tax on the loan.

How the scheme is claimed to work — summaryAn offshore company linked to AML creates and funds an employee benefit trust (EBT). The offshore company sells its right to nominate a beneficiary of the EBT to a company that the scheme users are directors of (the ‘user company’). The user company nominates the scheme users as beneficiaries and assigns them the debt that is owed to the offshore company via the director’s loan account (DLA); this debt is left outstanding. The outstanding debt is used to offset other loans received through the DLA, therefore avoiding Income Tax. The company also claims a Corporation Tax deduction for the amount of this assigned debt under employee costs.

A limited company splits the services provided by its director (the ‘scheme user’) into ‘fiduciary services’ and ‘consultancy services’. An offshore company contracts with the scheme user to supply their consultancy services to the limited company via the offshore company. The scheme user also signs a loan agreement with the offshore company in their capacity as trustee of a linked benefit trust. The scheme user is paid a notional salary from the limited company for fiduciary services, a loan from the linked trust and a notional retainer payment from the offshore company. The retainer payment and loan are both claimed to relate to ‘self-employed consultancy services’. The loan is made without Income Tax or National Insurance contributions deducted.

Date of publication2 August 2023
Legislation under which this scheme/promoter has been namedFinance Act 2022
How the scheme is claimed to workThe arrangements involve individuals providing their services to end clients or agencies through AUL and entering into an agreement where individuals grant ADYE Ltd a right to enter an Annuity Agreement in exchange for payments (the ‘Grantee Payments’). The individuals receive payment from AUL, however, tax and National Insurance contributions (NICs) are only deducted on a small part of the amount. This is evidenced on the payslips and figures reported to HMRC. It is HMRC’s view, that the larger amount, paid without deduction of tax and NICs was for the ‘Grantee Payments’, but is paid by AUL on behalf of ADYE Ltd. It is also HMRC’s view that the ‘Grantee Payments’ were additional disguised income for the services individuals provided through AUL, and therefore the entire payment should be subject to tax and NICs.
Any other information HMRC considers relevant to publish about these schemesHMRC have previously published Spotlight 60 guidance on agency workers and contractors employed by umbrella companies. HMRC has now allocated a scheme reference number (SRN) 49908130 to the arrangements on 02 November 2023 under section 311 Finance Act 2004 ‘Disclosure of Tax Avoidance Schemes’.

How the scheme is claimed to workThe arrangements involve companies buying ‘advertising’ services from B2B to connect with other organisations via B2B’s online platform. The companies claim Corporation Tax deductions for the amounts spent on B2B advertising. B2B then return up to 80% of the advertisement spend to the associated directors or any person chosen by the company via the provision of prepaid debit cards without deductions by the company for Income tax or National Insurance contributions (NICs). These amounts are described as ‘loyalty points’ with every 1 point worth £1 to the individual. B2B uses other companies to attract and refer scheme users. B2B enter into ‘Introducer Agreements’ with persons who will introduce their clients to B2B’s representatives and the B2B proposal. As per their Introducer Agreement, the companies receive fees based on a fixed percentage of the amounts spent by their clients on the B2B arrangements.
Any other information HMRC considers relevant to publish about these schemesIt is HMRC’s view that the redeemed ‘loyalty points’ are disguised remuneration and as such should be subject to deductions for Income Tax and NICs. Furthermore, it is also HMRC’s view that the advertising amounts paid by the companies to B2B are not allowable deductions for Corporation tax purposes. In some cases, the companies referring clients to B2B also act as agents or statutory auditors, or both, for their clients.

Legislation under which this scheme/promoter has been namedFinance Act 2022
How the scheme is claimed to work — summaryUnder the Umbrella Remuneration Trust (URT) arrangements, a scheme user (for example a company or a self-employed person) contributes to an offshore remuneration trust and claims the contribution as a deductible Corporation Tax or Income Tax expense. The money claimed to have been contributed to the trust is subsequently transferred, typically via another company, to the company’s director or back to the self-employed person. The director claims the funds received this way are held as ‘loans’ or held in a fiduciary capacity. HMRC has determined that these amounts are subject to tax, and recent tribunal decisions for the corporate users support this.
Any other information HMRC considers relevant to publish about these schemesWe have published a document that shows BWL and MSL (the ‘Promoters’) encouraging URT users to sign a declaration that claims the URT to which contributions were made is void, and HMRC must close its enquiries as they are invalid, and instead make a ‘replacement’ contribution to a newly founded ‘Nova’ Trust. HMRC considers this to be an acknowledgement by the Promoters that the URT arrangements do not work. The enquiries remain valid and HMRC considers that the Nova Trust arrangements are a continuation of the arrangements used by the URT, and therefore subject to tax and NICs. HMRC would encourage all users of the URT not to enter into Nova without obtaining independent advice.
Documents which are appropriate to publishPlease find below a link to the page for published documents, including the document issued by the Promoters to clients — the document contains a summary of the Nova arrangement and a question-and-answer section. HMRC do not agree with the assertions made in this document. We are publishing it to aid understanding of how Nova is claimed to work; to demonstrate that the Promoters do not appear to believe their own tax avoidance scheme works; and to deter potential scheme users from trusting the claims made by these Promoters. Evidence of marketing material used by tax avoidance promoters and suppliers.

Tax and National Insurance contributions are not paid on the second payment to the user.

This is not the case and these payments can clearly be seen as the balance of the amount the user raises on the timesheet they send to CML, most of which is to be paid on to the user by the second party and the rest retained by the second party as a fee. Tax and National Insurance contributions have not been paid on this second payment to the user. The scheme is targeted predominantly at physiotherapists, radiographers, nurses and social workers.

How the scheme is claimed to workThe arrangements involve individuals providing their services to end clients or agencies through DL and entering into an agreement where individuals grant BHL a right to enter an Annuity Agreement in exchange for payments (the ‘Grantee Payments’). The individuals receive a payment from DL; however, tax and National Insurance contributions (NICs) are only deducted on a small part of the amount.

It is also HMRC’s view that the Grantee Payments are additional disguised income for services provided by individuals through DL, and the entire payment should therefore be subject to tax and NICs.

Any other information HMRC considers relevant to publish about these schemesIt is HMRC’s view that the ‘advances’, paid against future bonus payments, are no different to normal income, and are therefore taxable. HMRC have previously published Spotlight 60 guidance for agency workers and contractors employed by umbrella companies. HMRC advise employees of PRL to familiarise themselves with the guidance and to satisfy themselves that the correct amount of tax is being deducted on their income.

Any other information HMRC considers relevant to publish about these schemesHMRC’s view is that both elements of the payment should be treated as ‘normal income/as the user’s salary’, and therefore subject to Income Tax and NICs. HMRC have previously published Spotlight 60 on disguised remuneration schemes involving agency workers and contractors employed by umbrella companies. HMRC suspects that the arrangement is targeted at local authority workers. HMRC is aware that some umbrella companies operate more than one scheme, such as a standard compliant scheme and a non-compliant scheme. HMRC advise employees of Payroll Professors Limited to familiarise themselves with the guidance and to satisfy themselves that the correct amount of tax is being deducted on their income.

Legislation under which this scheme/promoter has been namedFinance Act 2022
How the scheme is claimed to workThe arrangements involve individuals providing their services to end clients or agencies through Rainbowpay Ltd who operate the payroll. The individuals also enter into an agreement with Flexen Ltd where individuals grant Flexen Ltd the option to enter an Annuity Agreement in exchange for payments (the ‘Grantee Payments’). The individuals receive payslip from Rainbowpay Ltd showing Income and Deductions including Tax and National Insurance contributions (NICs). This amount is subsequently reported to HMRC. However, the amount actually paid into the individual’s bank account is greater than the amount shown on the payslip and the difference between these two amounts has not been subjected to Tax or NIC. It is HMRC’s view that the amount paid without tax and NIC deductions represents the ‘Grantee Payments’ but paid by Rainbow Ltd on behalf of Flexen Ltd. It is also HMRC’s view that the ‘Grantee Payments’ are also income for the services provided by individuals through Rainbowpay Ltd, and therefore the entire payment should be subject to tax and NIC deductions.
Any other information HMRC considers relevant to publish about these schemesHMRC have now notified both Rainbowpay Ltd and Flexen Ltd that a scheme reference number 58772053 has been allocated to the arrangements.

Child Benefit va fi retras de la zeci de mii de persoane care nu stau în UK

Ajutoare Financiare, Beneficii, Child Benefit, Comunicate Britanice, Țară nouă, moravuri și metehne vechi, Fraude de beneficii, GOV.UK, Home Office, Informari, informatii utile, Press Release, Probleme fiscale, Romania, Români în Anglia, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Alocația pentru copii (Child Benefit) va fi retrasă de la zeci de mii de persoane care s-au mutat în străinătate

Știți postarile alea de pe grupuri în care se întreabă dacă pot lua alocația pentru copil și din UK și din România și inevitabil apar persoane care se laudă ca iau din ambele părți de ani de zile, sau cele în care se miră ofensați că le-au venit scrisori să dea banii înapoi? Ei bine, o nouă echipă specializată acționează ca să oprească fraude cu Child Benefit în valoare de peste £350 milioane în următorii cinci ani. Căci este fraudă să încasezi alocația din UK dacă nu locuiești aici, dacă absentezi mai mult de 2 luni din UK, dacă copilul nu locuiește aici sau să încasezi din mai multe țări.

Mii de persoane care au părăsit UK, dar au continuat să solicite Child Benefit, au fost deja eliminate din sistem. Iar Child Benefit va fi retras de la alte zeci de mii de persoane care s-au mutat în străinătate.

O echipă specializată va folosi datele internaționale de călătorie pentru a urmări dacă solicitanții de alocații au plecat în străinătate, astfel încât nu mai au dreptul la aceste plăți.

Măsura urmează unui proiect pilot de succes, unde, în nici un an de zile, doar 15 investigatori au reușit să stopeze aproximativ £17 milioane în plăți necuvenite și au eliminat din sistem deja 2.600 de persoane care părăsiseră UK, dar continuau să primească Child Benefit.

Începând de luna viitoare, guvernul va extinde această unitate la 200 de investigatori, transmitând un avertisment clar celor care încearcă să fraudeze sistemul.

Child Benefit este plătit către aproape 6,9 milioane de familii, sprijinind 11,9 milioane de copii. Este una dintre cele mai utilizate forme de benefit în UK și este administrat de HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC).

Dacă beneficiarul se află în afara UK mai mult de opt săptămâni, plățile de Child Benefit vor fi suspendate, cu excepția cazurilor de circumstanțe excepționale. Beneficiarii trebuie să informeze HMRC dacă stau în afara UK pentru această perioadă sau mai mult.

*Proiectul pilot a fost realizat de Public Sector Fraud Authority, Home Office și HMRC. În baza Digital Economy Act, aceștia au comparat un eșantion aleatoriu de 200.000 de înregistrări de Child Benefit cu date internaționale de călătorie.

Acolo unde datele sugerau că un beneficiar a părăsit țara, investigatori specializați de la HMRC au intervenit pentru a efectua propriile verificări înainte de a decide dacă beneficiile erau încasate incorect. Fiecare caz este revizuit de un investigator uman, iar HMRC va contacta direct familiile ca parte a oricărei investigații pentru a rezolva rapid situațiile.

Această acțiune împotriva fraudei protejează familiile muncitoare care respectă regulile și asigură că fiecare liră din banii contribuabililor ajunge acolo unde trebuie.

Cabinet Office Minister Georgia Gould a declarat:

“This government is putting a stop to people claiming benefits when they aren’t eligible to do so.

From September, we’ll have ten times as many investigators saving hundreds of millions of pounds of taxpayer’s money.

If you’re claiming benefits you’re not entitled to, your time is up.“

Cumpărătorii de locuințe sunt avertizați să evite escrocheriile legate de Stamp Duty Land Tax

Avertisment pentru cumpărătorii de locuințe: HMRC ia măsuri împotriva cererilor false de rambursare a Stamp Duty

HMRC urmărește activ agenții necinstiți care promovează și fac cereri false de rambursare a Stamp Duty Land Tax
Cumpărătorii de locuințe sunt avertizați să evite escrocheriile legate de Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT), ca urmare a deciziei Curții de Apel, ce confirmă că proprietățile care necesită reparații sunt în continuare supuse cotelor rezidențiale de SDLT.

HMRC avertizează persoanele care achiziționează proprietăți să fie vigilente în fața agenților fiscali care le oferă să obțină rambursări de SDLT în numele lor, în situațiile în care proprietatea achiziționată necesită reparații.

Anumiți agenți au sugerat că, în schimbul unei taxe, pot recupera SDLT-ul deja plătit de cumpărător, susținând că proprietatea este nerezidențială deoarece este nelocuibilă. Însă astfel de cereri lasă de cele mai multe ori proprietarul responsabil pentru plata integrală a SDLT-ului, precum și a penalităților și dobânzilor aferente.

O hotărâre recentă a Curții de Apel în cauza Mudan & Anor v HMRC a confirmat că locuințele („dwellings”) care necesită reparații sunt supuse cotelor rezidențiale de SDLT, iar cererile de rambursare bazate exclusiv pe starea proprietății nu sunt valide.

Această decizie confirmă punctul de vedere susținut de mult timp de HMRC, conform căruia, dacă o proprietate necesită reparații, dar păstrează caracteristicile fundamentale ale unei locuințe, aceasta este în continuare adecvată pentru utilizare ca locuință și atrage aplicarea cotelor rezidențiale de SDLT. Un factor cheie în determinarea adecvării este dacă proprietatea a fost utilizată anterior ca locuință.

HMRC ia măsuri decisive împotriva cererilor nefondate de rambursare a SDLT, folosindu-și competențele civile și penale pentru a acționa împotriva celor care subminează sistemul fiscal.

Anthony Burke, Director Adjunct pentru Compliance Assets în cadrul HMRC, a declarat:

„Decizia Curții de Apel reprezintă o victorie majoră în protejarea fondurilor publice. Cumpărătorii de locuințe ar trebui să fie precauți înainte de a permite cuiva să depună o cerere de rambursare a Stamp Duty Land Tax în numele lor. Dacă cererea este incorectă, riscați să plătiți mai mult decât suma pe care încercați să o recuperați.”

Oricine nu este sigur în privința regulilor ar trebui să consulte ghidul SDLT pe GOV.UK.

Exemplu:
Dacă Joe a cumpărat o casă în Londra pentru £1,100,000 și avocatul său a depus declarația SDLT, SDLT a fost calculat la cotele rezidențiale (£53,750). Deoarece casa necesita modernizare și reparații, Joe nu a putut să se mute imediat. Casa avea nevoie de o centrală termică nouă, rețea electrică refăcută și tratament împotriva umezelii.

La scurt timp după mutare, Joe a primit prin poștă o reclamă de la un repayment agent care, în mod incorect, sugera că, datorită reparațiilor necesare, i-ar putea obține o rambursare de SDLT, pe baza unui acord „no win, no fee”. În cazul lui Joe, rambursarea se ridica la £9,250 (diferența dintre cotele rezidențiale și nerezidențiale), din care se deducea comisionul de 30% al agentului. Joe a fost de acord ca agentul să depună cererea în numele său și a primit rambursarea. Mai târziu în acel an, HMRC a deschis un control privind cererea de rambursare și a concluzionat că proprietatea era rezidențială.

Prin urmare, Joe a aflat că datorează £9,250 SDLT, plus dobândă și penalitate, deși agentul îi trimisese doar £6,475, după deducerea comisionului. Acum este în pierdere, deoarece agentul a refuzat să acopere dobânda și penalitatea și nu a mai răspuns la emailurile și apelurile telefonice.

Ce date personale deține și păstrează DWP

Beneficii, DWP, Fraude de beneficii, GOV.UK, Informari, Universal Credit, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Department for Work and Pensions (DWP), adică cei care plătesc beneficiile și pensiile în UK, procesează multe date personale sensibile. Când vă solicită informații personale, trebuie să le oferiți informații corecte și să îi anunțați cât mai curând posibil dacă apar modificări, cum ar fi o nouă adresă, când începeți să lucrați sau câștigați mai mult.

Dacă nu îi informați despre modificările care afectează orice beneficiu plătit de DWP, puteți fi urmărit penal sau se pot aplica alte sancțiuni.

Hai să vedem la ce folosește DWP datele personale, de unde le ia și cu cine le împarte și cât timp le păstrează:

1. DWP folosește informațiile personale pentru a gestiona:

  • beneficii, granturi, împrumuturi, pensii și Housing Benefit
  • întreținerea copilului (child maintenance)
  • investigarea sau urmărirea penală a fraudelor de beneficii și tax credits
  • prevenirea și detectarea fraudei, precum și protejarea fondurilor publice
  • ocuparea forței de muncă și formare
  • promovarea planificării financiare pentru pensionare
  • politici privind schemele de pensii ocupaționale și personale
  • cercetare și analiză în domeniile de mai sus

Ce date procesează DWP: detalii personale, situații familiale, de stil de viață și sociale, detalii financiare, despre muncă și educație, despre bunuri sau servicii furnizate, imagini vizuale, detalii privind sănătatea fizică sau mentală, date biometrice și genetice, apartenența la sindicate, convingeri politice, religioase sau de altă natură, infracțiuni, inclusiv presupuse infracțiuni, proceduri penale, rezultate și sentințe, origine rasială sau etnică.

DWP deține informații de bază (cum ar fi nume, adresă, data nașterii) despre toți cei care au primit Nino (national insurance number). Aceste informații sunt folosite de DWP și HMRC: de HMRC pentru a păstra evidența ocupării forței de muncă și a contribuțiilor de asigurări naționale și de DWP pentru plata beneficiilor și administrarea pensiilor.

DWP are uneori nevoie de informații și despre alte persoane, altele decât solicitantul unui beneficiu, pentru a stabili la ce are dreptul acea persoană. De exemplu, dacă o persoană aplică pentru Universal Credit, au nevoie de informații despre ceilalți membri ai familiei sau persoane cu care împart locuința, pentru a calcula suma care va fi plătită. Ca atare, DWP deține date despre clienți și solicitanți de beneficii, datele persoanelor care locuiesc în gospodăria solicitantului, rude, tutori și asociați, infractori și suspecți de infracțiuni, reclamanți și persoane care solicită informații, angajați, consilieri, consultanți și alți profesioniști, furnizori și prestatori de servicii.

DWP nu va folosi datele voastre pentru a încerca să vă vândă produse și nu va vinde datele dvs. nimănui.

2. Cât timp păstrează DWP datele personale.

DWP păstrează datele personale atât timp cât este necesar pentru scopurile pentru care au fost colectate și pentru a îndeplini obligațiile legale. Durata păstrării datelor poate varia în funcție de tipul de date, motivul pentru care au fost colectate și cerințele legale.

Numele, data nașterii și adresa dvs. sunt păstrate atât timp cât există nino( numărul de asigurare națională).

Informațiile detaliate pe care le furnizați când aplicați pentru un beneficiu și informațiile furnizate pentru alte servicii DWP sunt păstrate după ce claimul se închide pentru o perioadă necesară oricăror contestații, revizuiri, apeluri și alte activități. Evidențele plăților pot fi păstrate pentru o perioadă mai lungă, de obicei 6 ani dacă sunt relevante pentru impozitul pe care îl plătiți.

3. Cu cine face DWP schimb de informații(primește și dă):

  • alte departamente guvernamentale, autorități de aplicare a legii, instanțe judecătorești și tribunale
  • autorități locale( Local Council, de ex)
  • organizații de securitate socială din alte țări
  • angajatori și potențiali angajatori
  • social landlordzi
  • companii de utilități, cum ar fi furnizorii de energie și apă
  • companii de telefonie și de internet
  • TV Licensing
  • bănci și alte organizații care pot acorda împrumuturi, și agenții de evaluare a creditului
  • organizații de caritate și de asistență socială
  • serviciile de urgență
  • instituții academice
  • consilieri și reprezentanți autorizați ai dvs.
  • contractorii și furnizorii care livrează servicii catre DWP (de exemplu companiile care furnizează Work Programme – acționează ca persoane împuternicite de operatorul de date al DWP (data processors).

Baza legală pentru procesarea datelor voastre.

DWP procesează datele personale deoarece sunt obligați de lege, e funcția lor să o facă și este în interesul public. În acest caz, nu au nevoie de consimțământul vostru. Ei vă pot cere uneori permisiunea sau consimțământul, dar doar atunci când aveți o alegere reală. De cele mai multe ori – de exemplu atunci când aplicați la vreun beneficiu – trebuie să le dați informațiile necesare pentru a verifica eligibilitatea, iar DWP este obligat să utilizeze acele date. Baza legală este: UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) și Data Protection Act 2018

Ce-ar mai trebui să știți:

-că DWP folosește AI (inteligența artificială) pentru detectarea și prevenirea fraudei și erorilor și pentru eficiența serviciilor. Însă nu folosește AI pentru a înlocui judecata umană în luarea deciziilor privind acordarea sau refuzul unei plăți pentru un solicitant.

-că DWP folosește alogoritmi și procesare automată în unele decizii, pentru detectarea fraudei și în sprijinirea deciziilor privind plățile. Deciziile importante care vă afectează în mod semnificativ nu vor fi luate exclusiv prin mijloace automate, un angajat DWP va revizui deciziile și va lua hotărârea finală. DWP nu va lua nicio decizie bazată exclusiv pe procesare automată care să aibă un efect semnificativ asupra dvs., decât dacă legea permite acest lucru.

-că DWP folosește profilarea pentru a:

  • evita solicitarea de informații sau dovezi inutile și a ne asigura că le cerem atunci când este necesar
  • direcționa apelurile și furnizarea serviciilor – pentru a ne asigura că oamenii vorbesc cu departamentul potrivit și primesc sprijin suplimentar dacă este necesar
  • personaliza sprijinul pentru indivizi – de exemplu pentru a sugera dezvoltarea unor competențe, oferirea unui work coach specializat sau alte forme de sprijin pentru angajare
  • îmbunătăți serviciile DWP
  • detecta și preveni frauda și eroarea

-că majoritatea birourilor Jobcentre Plus (care sunt parte din DWP) utilizează CCTV pentru a gestiona securitatea și pentru a proteja persoanele. DWP este chiriaș al clădirilor pe care le utilizează, iar serviciile CCTV sunt, de obicei, livrate fie de compania de la care închiriză biroul, fie de firma care furnizează servicii de securitate pentru acel office. În acele birouri există afișe despre cine administrează CCTV și cui vă puteți adresa pentru întrebări.

-că apelurile telefonice către birourile DWP și despre serviciile DWP sunt înregistrate.

-că DWP furnizează serviciul Tell Us Once pentru guvern. Informațiile obținute pentru Tell Us Once sunt păstrate separat de celelalte date ale DWP și nu sunt folosite în alte scopuri.

5 aprilie 2025 – termen limită pentru plățile voluntare la nino pentru perioade mai vechi de 6 ani

DWP, Finanțe, Formulare si modele, Informari, informatii utile, Nin, Probleme fiscale, Români în Anglia, Viata in UK, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Dacă aveți pauze între angajări în trecut sau nu ați muncit, ca atare aveți lipsă contribuții la nino pentru pensia de stat, puteți plăti contribuții voluntare la National Insurance. Dacă sunteți bărbat născut după 5 aprilie 1951 sau femeie născută după 5 aprilie 1953, atunci puteți plăti contribuții voluntare pentru a acoperi lacunele dintre 2006 și 2018. Dacă v-ați născut înainte de aceste date, puteți acoperi lacunele dintre 2016 și 2018.

Aveți timp până la 5 aprilie 2025 pentru a plăti lacunele din contribuțiile voastre la National Insurance mai vechi de 6 ani.

Termenul limită pentru plata contribuțiilor voluntare la National Insurance pentru a acoperi lacunele mai vechi de 6 ani (începând din aprilie 2006) este 5 aprilie 2025.
După această dată, toată lumea va putea plăti contribuții voluntare doar pentru ultimii 6 ani fiscali.

Verificați dacă puteți plăti pentru a acoperi lacunele și pentru a vă crește pensia de stat pe Government Gateway, unde puteți plăti prin transfer bancar.

Contribuțiile voluntare nu cresc întotdeauna pensia de stat – dacă nu sunteți sigur, sunați la Future Pension Centre dacă sunteți sub vârsta de pensionare de stat, sau la Pension Service dacă ați atins vârsta de pensionare de stat.

Dacă vreți să plătiți online și nu puteți sau dacă doar vreți să vi se înregistreze până la data limită interesul de a plăti contribuții voluntare trebuie să sunați la Future Pension Centre.
Liniile telefonice sunt extrem de aglomerate – aveți răbdare și încercați să sunați dimineața devreme sau după-amiaza târziu, dacă este posibil.

Dacă nu reușiți să vorbiți cu cineva și ca să vă încadrați totuși în termen, cel mai bine completați formularul call back request form ca DWP să vă sune și să discutați despre plata contribuțiilor voluntare la National Insurance.

Dacă faceți această cerere până la termenul limită de 5 aprilie 2025, veți putea totuși să plătiți contribuții voluntare la National Insurance chiar și după ce termenul a expirat.

Help to Save

Ajutoare Financiare, Beneficii, Cum să, Finanțe, Ghiduri, Informari, informatii utile, Viata in UK, , , , , , , , ,

Schema guvernamentală Help to Save – este un tip de cont de economii special conceput pentru persoanele cu venituri mici. Poți economisi între £1 și £50 pe lună, dar nu ești obligat să economisești în fiecare lună. La sfârșitul a doi și patru ani, primești un bonus de 50%, până la un maxim de £1.200. Poți face retrageri dacă ai nevoie.

Cum funcționează Help to Save?

  • Economisește până la £50/lună. Este un cont cu acces facil, deci poți retrage bani dacă ai nevoie.
  • Primul bonus de 50% este plătit după doi ani. Acesta este calculat pe baza celui mai mare sold din primii doi ani (maxim £600 bonus).
  • Al doilea bonus de 50% este plătit după patru ani. Acesta este calculat pe diferența dintre cel mai mare sold din anii trei și patru și cel mai mare sold din primii doi ani (maxim £600 bonus).

Cum mă calific pentru Help to Save?

Trebuie să fii rezident în UK și să îndeplinești una dintre următoarele condiții:

  • Să primești Universal Credit și să ai venituri din muncă de cel puțin £793,17 în ultima perioadă de evaluare lunară.
  • Să fii eligibil pentru Working Tax Credit și să primești Working sau Child Tax Credit.

Dacă nu mai ești eligibil pentru Universal Credit sau Working Tax Credit după ce ai deschis contul, poți continua să economisești. Trebuie să fii eligibil doar la momentul deschiderii contului.

Începând cu aprilie 2025, orice persoană care lucrează și primește Universal Credit și care câștigă cel puțin £1 va fi eligibilă.

Poți deschide un cont până în aprilie 2027. Odată deschis, îl poți păstra timp de patru ani.

Cum aplic?

  • Online, la Help to Save pe Gov.uk. Trebuie să te autentifici în contul tău Government Gateway (aceleași detalii pe care le folosești pentru Universal Credit sau Tax Credits). Dacă nu ai un ID pentru Government Gateway, sună la Help to Save support line la 0300 322 7093. HMRC îți poate deschide un cont prin întrebări de securitate, fără să fie nevoie de un ID. Vei avea nevoie de nino – numărul tău de asigurare națională (National Insurance Number).
  • Telefonic, sunând la HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) la 0300 322 7093.
  • Prin aplicația HMRC

Care e treaba cu bonusul de 50% ?

  1. Bonusul pentru primii doi ani este calculat pe baza celui mai mare sold atins, nu a sumei rămase în cont.
    • De exemplu, dacă ai economisit £1.000 dar ai retras £200 înainte de finalul celor doi ani, rămânând cu un sold de £800, vei primi tot un bonus de £500, deoarece acesta se bazează pe cel mai mare sold atins (£1.000).
  2. Bonusul pentru anii trei și patru este calculat pe diferența dintre cel mai mare sold din primii doi ani și cel mai mare sold din ultimii doi ani.
    • Exemplu:
      • În primii doi ani ai economisit £500 și ai primit un bonus de £250.
      • Ai retras cei 500 pentru că ai avut nevoie de ei.
      • În anii trei și patru ai economisit £750.
      • Bonusul tău va fi de £125 (£750 – £500 = £250, bonusul fiind 50% din diferența dintre cele două, adică din £250 ).

Nu ești sigur că te califici?

Nu-ți face griji – eligibilitatea este verificată automat în timpul procesului de aplicare. Dacă nu ești eligibil, nu vei putea aplica.

Cum poți depune bani în cont?

Poți efectua plăți prin:

  • Card de debit
  • Ordin de plată permanent (standing order)
  • Transfer bancar

Poți face oricâte depozite în fiecare lună, atâta timp cât nu depășești £50/lună.

Help to Save îmi afectează beneficiile?

Pe cont propriu, nu – dacă acestea sunt singurele economii pe care le ai.

Dacă ai și alte economii, atunci banii economisiți aici pot afecta beneficiile, dacă depășesc pragul de economii de £6.000 pentru Universal Credit sau reducerea taxei de consiliu (Council Tax Reduction).

  • Pentru economii peste £6.000, pierzi £4,35/lună din Universal Credit sau £1/lună din reducerea la Council tax, pentru fiecare £250 economisiți peste acest prag.
  • Economii peste £16.000 te descalifică de la Universal Credit și reducerea la Council tax.

Dacă locuiești cu un partener, economiile acestuia sunt luate în considerare împreună cu ale tale. Așadar, dacă ambii economisiți suma maximă timp de patru ani, economiile voastre combinate pot depăși pragul de £6.000 și vă pot afecta beneficiile.

Dacă primești Working Tax Credit sau Child Tax Credit, bonusul Help to Save nu este impozabil și nu este considerat venit suplimentar, deci nu îți va afecta beneficiile în anul în care este plătit.

Merită să economisesc în anii trei și patru?

În general, da. Chiar dacă randamentul nu este la fel de mare – practic primești un bonus maxim de 25% în anii trei și patru – este totuși o opțiune mai bună decât orice altă formă de economisire.

Exemplu:

  • Economisești £50/lună timp de doi ani → Ai £1.200 → Primești £600 bonus (50%).
  • Continui să economisești £50/lună timp de alți doi ani → Ajungi la £2.400 → Primești £600 bonus (50% din sumele adăugate în ultimii doi ani).
  • Total economii: £3.000, cu un bonus total de £1.200.

Contul Help to Save este administrat pe platforma National Savings & Investments (NS&I), ceea ce înseamnă că economiile tale sunt 100% sigure.

Din ianuarie 2025, platformele online vor transmite la HMRC datele despre vânzări și datele personale ale utilizatorilor

Comunicate, Finanțe, Ghiduri, informatii utile, Probleme fiscale, Viata in UK, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,



Începând din ianuarie 2025, platformele online vor începe să transmită la HMRC datele despre vânzări și datele personale ale utilizatorilor.

Dacă nu desfășurați o activitate comercială și doar vindeți online ocazional diverse obiecte, fie cadourile nedorite, hainele copilului care au rămas mici sau lucruri de prin casă – nu se datorează niciun impozit. Absolut nimic nu s-a schimbat și nu există noi obligații fiscale, a confirmat HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC).

Cei care au vândut în anul 2024 cel puțin 30 de articole sau au câștigat aproximativ 1.700 £ (echivalentul a 2.000 €) sau au prestat în 2024 servicii plătite pe un site sau aplicații, vor fi contactați în ianuarie de catre platforma respectivă, iar datele lor despre vânzări și unele informații personale vor fi transmise către HMRC din cauza unor noi obligații legale.

Raportarea datelor despre vânzări nu înseamnă automat că persoana trebuie să completeze o declarație fiscală. Cei care ar putea avea nevoie să se înregistreze pentru Self Assessment și să plătească taxe sunt aceia care:

  • cumpără bunuri și le revând pentru profit sau produc bunuri cu intenția de a le vinde pentru profit;
  • oferă servicii online – de curierat, livrari mâncare sau închiriază o locuință de vacanță printr-un site ;
    ȘI generează un venit total din activități comerciale sau prestări de servicii online, de peste 1.000 £ înainte de deducerea cheltuielilor într-un an fiscal.

Dacă nu sunteți siguri că veniturile pe care le produceți în plus ar putea fi impozitate, verificați despre „online platform income” aici -> https://www.gov.uk/guidance/check-if-you-need-to-tell-hmrc-about-your-income-from-online-platforms#check-if-you-need-to-tell-hmrc-about-your-income , unde aveți un instrument HMRC online gratuit (sau descărcați aplicația HMRC și accesați secțiunea „news” din fila „communication”).

Oricine nu este sigur dacă trebuie să completeze un Self Assessment pentru anul fiscal 2023-2024 poate verifica pe GOV.UK. Cei care sunt noi în sistemul Self Assessment se pot înregistra aici.

*HMRC recomandă ca oricine vinde regulat bunuri sau oferă servicii online să afle mai multe despre vânzările online și plata taxelor pe GOV.UK. Un link către ghid va fi disponibil în aplicația HMRC în secțiunea „news” din fila „communication” miercuri, 4 decembrie.
