New Financial Year
About this date
The "New Financial Year" refers to the beginning of a fresh accounting period for financial and tax purposes. It marks the start of a new cycle for fiscal calculations, budgeting, and reporting. In the United Kingdom, the new financial year begins on the 6th of April and ends on the 5th of April of the following year. During this time, individuals, businesses, and governmental bodies review their financial records, set new goals, and adjust their financial plans accordingly. It is an important milestone that influences tax calculations, financial reporting, and financial decision-making throughout the year.

Deadline for filing Self Assessment and Capital Gains Tax
The "Deadline for filing Self Assessment and Capital Gains Tax" is the final date by which individuals in the United Kingdom must submit their Self Assessment tax returns and Capital Gains Tax information to HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC). Self Assessment is a system used to report income, expenses, and other relevant financial details to determine the amount of tax owed. Capital Gains Tax, on the other hand, is applicable when individuals sell or dispose of certain assets and make a profit. The deadline for filing Self Assessment and Capital Gains Tax returns typically falls on the same day, which is an important deadline to meet to avoid penalties or late filing fees. It's worth noting that the specific deadline may vary each year, so individuals should consult the latest HMRC guidelines or official resources to determine the exact date for a particular tax year.
