AS has now refreshed key priorities for 2016/17 and the revised name better reflects the scope of what HMRC aims to deliver for agents within this programme of work.
The four priority delivery areas for AS are:
On-boarding - enable agents to access services and features contained in the personal and the business tax account using third party software which will give them the ability to see and do what their clients are able to do through their tax account. Subscription - a process that will allow the collection of data about a tax agency as part of HMRC's agent strategy. Authorisation - enhance existing online agent authorisation (OAA). Inbound Secure Messaging - work to understand what information agents want to send to HMRC and explore the digital solutions that can be used to cater for this requirement.
A Talking Points digital meeting on AS is scheduled for 12:00-12:45 on 19 May 2016. Click here to register for this meeting.
