Question

MTD showing an open return from earlier in the year but nothing else

Hi all,

 

So, signed up for MTD in June and haven't managed to submit a return yet.

 

Quickbooks is showing an open return dated as 1st february 2022, but I didn't sign up until June.

 

There are no other return dates showing, so my May quarter and this quarter are not available. I have spoken to HMRC who say there isn't an open return for 1st Feb, but this is the only thing QB is showing me.

 

Any ideas before I launch the pc out the window??

Hi Dan202, thanks for joining the QB Community 🙂

 

Is the 'when do you need to start calculating your VAT from?' field set to the correct month in your tax settings (Taxes > Edit VAT > Edit settings), and is MTD turned on and connected successfully in QuickBooks?

Hi Georgia,

 

Date is set correctly (although I have tried every month to be sure), and MTD is on. I'm guessing it connects ok as there are no errors showing.

Hi Dan202 We can see that you've marked as filed within QuickBooks the 01/11/2021 - 31/01/2022 period, hopefully this period is showing the same amount as what's been filed at HMRC, if not we advise that you contact our telephone support team to have the period unfiled so you can correct the amount, and therefore the beginning date of next period is defaulting to 01/02/2022. You will also have to mark the next period as filed within QuickBooks, 01/02/2022 - 30/04/2022, in accordance what has already been submitted to HMRC and ensure that the amounts are also correct. Once you've marked this period as filed this should then enable you to submit the next period that HMRC are expecting, 01/05/2022 - 31/07/2022, from QuickBooks.
