What if you can’t afford to pay your tax bill?

No money concept

Some tax payers are great at saving up and keeping money aside to pay their tax bill, but many aren’t!

What can you do if you can’t pay?

You could ask HMRC for help

You may be able to either:

  • get more time to pay
  • pay your bill in instalments by direct debit
  • Telephone: 0300 200 3835
  • Opening times:

    8am to 8pm, Monday to Friday
    8am to 4pm, Saturday and Sunday

Another option might be to use Credit Cards, you may be able to get a 0% credit card or pay and then transfer to 0%

This might be easier, better and cheaper than spreading payments with HMRC.
