How do i clear amounts shown in VAT owed to HMRC building up

Question asked by John Algar 9 years ago

Hello I have three amounts shown on the dashboard as "amounts shown in VAT owed to HMRC building up" from QE Sept 15; Dec 15; Mar 16 I have paid all amounts owing to them, there is no outstanding debt I submit directly online not through CB How do I clear these? Any help appreciated John

Hi Les,

Usually, the problem will be that the bill to HMRC for VAT is not coded to the VAT control account, however, if the bill is coded to VAT control and you are still having problems let us know in a ticket and we will investigate on your account.

Hi - I have the same problem - as John - with a substantial value showing as outstanding to HMRC

I process sales and purchase invoices as normal - and then when I pay the VAT (which I do manually) it does not seem to come off the right account - can you please advise which accounts I should debit and credit when paying VAT to HMRC.

Thanks Les
