Tax Practice Members Survey

Introduction

The CCAB-I have successfully lobbied for the extension of the Pay and File Income Tax deadline and for the extension of the phased payment arrangement deadline for non-COVID-19 tax debt. However, we are aware that members in practice continue to face difficulties in managing the various tax deadlines this year.

The purpose of this short survey is to establish the extent of the difficulties facing accountants in practice and to build a more detailed understanding of the source of these pressures for the purpose of our ongoing lobbying work.

Thank you for taking the time to respond to this survey and inform your Institute. This survey is anonymous and takes only three minutes to complete.

The survey will close on Wednesday 7 October at midnight.
