LITRG is promoting the Ministry of Justice’s efforts to design an online service for tax appeals based on real user needs. Volunteers are invited to get involved.

Introduction

The Low Incomes Tax Reform Group (LITRG) has recently been in touch with the Ministry of Justice (MOJ), as plans are under way to create an online appeals service for people challenging decisions by HMRC. As part of their work, the MOJ is looking for volunteers to attend a workshop about how the new service should be designed. Details of how to get involved are given in this article.

Please note, the text below has been supplied by the MOJ and LITRG is posting it on their behalf.

Invitation from the Ministry of Justice

At the Ministry of Justice (MOJ), we believe in designing services based on real user needs.

We need your help to create a new online service for people challenging decisions by HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC).

The new digital service will allow people to submit an appeal to an independent tax tribunal. The tribunal is operated by MOJ and overseen by an independent judge who listens to both sides in the dispute before making a decision.

We are looking for volunteers to test our service and give useful feedback on what works and what doesn’t. You don't need to have knowledge of computers or be confident using the Internet!

Please let us know if you’d like to be involved and your preferred day, time and location.

Duration: 1 hour
When: November 2016
Where: Ministry of Justice, 102 Petty France, London, SW1H 9AH
(or at your workplace if it’s easier)

Thanks in advance for your help. You could help improve the experiences of taxpayers nationwide.
