HMRC have announced details of a new Agent-Dedicated phone line in each taxes Contact Centre.

Responding to feedback from Tax Agent Representatives at the Working Together Steering Group Meeting on 5 December 2007, HMRC Contact Centres agreed to introduce a new Agent Dedicated Line in each taxes Contact Centre. The new line will be introduced to each Contact Centre on a rolling basis.

The line is now operational in East Kilbride and Bradford Contact Centres abd will shortly be extended to the other taxes sites. However, operational demands throughout January may mean that the line is not available in the other sites until February 2008 at the earliest.

The new Agent Dedicated Lines are intended for all agent enquiries for taxpayer-specific calls about Self Assessment (SA) and Pay As You Earn (PAYE) for individuals and partnership matters. The range of business that can be doen over the phone with the Contact Centres is outlined in the HMRC How to contact us guide.
