Spend Friday in the pub, not doing your tax return | | By Stephanie Baxter, Deputy personal finance editor |
| There are fewer than 60 hours left until the deadline for filing your 2018-19 tax return. Well done to the millions who have already submitted. For those of you who have to complete or finish it, don't fret. There's still time ahead of this Friday's deadline, but it would be wise to avoid leaving it until the last minute. Surely going to the pub is a better way to spend a Friday night than filing a tax return? Last year, 730,000 left it until the last day. Read our step-by-step guide to filing your tax return painlessly. Even if you don't think you need to file one, it's best to check before it's too late. Here are five reasons why you might need to. Find out the big changes for this tax year and how filing one can trigger tax reliefs and refunds. An astounding 750,000 people missed the deadline last year. You'll have to pay a 100 fine if you miss it. But you can contest the penalty with a valid reason such as illness or a problem with HMRC's own systems, which one in three taxpayers have successfully done. There's all this and plenty more at Telegraph Money, where you can subscribe for 2 a week. | | |

You have the last word... Wise Old Elf says of 'Woodford investors to lose more than half their money as fund closure begins': "Study the underlying assets in the fund, read the blurb, especially 'you may not get back the amount you invested'. Don't put your faith in 'star' fund managers. Spread your risks widely. 'Slow and steady' usually outweighs making a quick buck. Tracker funds, while yielding a little less, are considerably safer, cheaper, and involve less human intervention." | | |
