Change VAT end for VAT period

Hi,

 

I am trying to file first VAT return in QB and also for MTD but the VAT end date is showing from May to August instead of the quarter May to July.

 

The VAT settings are start of current period May and quarterly filing frequency. it was showing as the end date in July yesterday so don't know why its showing as August today.

 

Does anyone know how to change this from August to July.

 

Thank in advance.

Hello edwardj,

 

Select Prepare return on this period, you will then be able to change the end date at the top of the page. With MTD, the dates that HMRC are expecting are automatically pushed through to QuickBooks, and so the dates may have changed because HMRC are expecting May to August from you. If you are positive this is not the case, change the end date and submit. If not, log into your HMRC account and confirm which dates they are expecting you to submit.

 

Thanks,

Talia

Once MTD is enabled the obligations are sync directly from HMRC, if this is not showing the end date you are expecting you would need to contact them to update the obligation request.
