1 May 2007 2007 TAX RETURN - BOX 9.5
We have been notified by HMRC that, because of an error in its validation, it will not be possible to submit a 2007 Tax Return with a tick in box 9.5 in the Non-residence supplement.
The recommended workaround is not to tick either of boxes 9.2 and 9.5, but to provide the correct residence status in additional information box 9.27.
 
21 June 2006 COMPANY TAX RETURN - REJECTION AT BOX 152
For FBI, the entry in box 152 on page 8 of the CT600 must be a maximum of 28 characters. The validation process does not detect an entry greater than 28 characters. If you submit a return with more than 28 characters in box 152 it will be rejected with error code 5012.
The validation will be rectified in future updates. In the meantime, you must ensure that any entry in box 152 does not exceed 28 characters.
