HMRC Cancels 6,000 Child Benefit Fines


Which? reports that last year HMRC wrote to 35,000 families stating they would be fined for failing to register for the higher earners' child benefit tax charge in the tax years of 2013-2014, 2014-2015 and 2015-2016.

The ‘failure to notify’ fines sparked complaints from parents who argued they were not aware of the rule change.

HMRC has now announced following a major review that it will cancel 6,000 fines (approx £1.8M) for people who had a ‘reasonable excuse’ for failing to state they were liable for the charge.

The remaining 29,000 people, who have not been refunded, have the right to appeal.

Tax does have to be taxing.
