Do we not get reminders about vat due return dates.

Thanks for reaching out to the Community forum, pwhiteelectrics.

In QuickBooks Online, once a VAT returns are due you'll receive a notification on the Dashboard page. To check, I recommend visiting your Dashboard page for the tasks that you'll need to accomplish. 
 

That's it! This will point you in the right direction, pwhiteelectrics.
