HMRC urges customers to file their Self Assessment tax returns ahead of the 31 January 2025 deadline to avoid a £100 late filing penalty. More than 7.4 million Self Assessment customers have already filed their tax return for the 2023 to 2024 tax year.
In partnership with Community Advice Lisburn & Castlereagh (CALC) and funded by Lisburn & Castlereagh City Council Advice NI and CALC will be hosting a number of information sessions aimed at Asylum seekers, Refugees, and Migrants living in Northern Ireland and those who work with them.
Banks have been warned that it's "not fair" to automatically blame customers for money lost through a scam. Last year, customers transferred nearly £240m to fraudsters, only a quarter of which was refunded by financial firms.
Established in 2016, the Scamwise NI partnership now has over 30 members, each one sharing their own unique knowledge on how to protect the more vulnerable of our society.
