Another S9A fishing exercise with a twisted hook
Posted: Tue Feb 13, 2018 12:08 pm
Hi all,
Another S9A enquiry but this time, whilst correctly addressed to Mr T, the schedule of information and documents request was addressed to Mr N with a different case reference.
I'm presuming that HMRC will hide behnd SALF403 which states "the only condition that the officer of the Board must satisfy before commencing an enquiry is that he must give the taxpayer written notice of his intention to enquire into the tax return" when I question the validity of the notice. There is also a clear data breach, maybe two if Mr N has received the info request for Mr T.
Has anyone had a similar experience?
Now the fishing exercise, HMRC have requested a list of all land and property owned in the UK or overseas during the tax year, whether let or not, whether owned jointly or solely, directly or indirectly.
Any properties owned but not let do not have any relevance to the entries on the tax return, none were acquired or sold during the year either, so I am tempted to challenge the request. Any thoughts?
