Deadline approaching for paper tax returns

For those registered to submit paper self assessment tax returns, the deadline for 2013/14 is October 31.
Any tax returns submitted after that date must be sent electronically to avoid a minimum penalty of £100.
The penalty for submitting returns up to three months late is £100, or more if the payment is made later than this.
Tax returns must be sent even when there is no tax to be paid or if it has already been paid.
