I'll explain in detail what's causing that error message and offer you the solution to resolve this issue, Mark.

 

 The error message you're seeing appears if you try to file before the allotted time or without the necessary permission.

 

To fix this, you should wait until the tax period has ended before filing your return. Also, double-check that your permissions in QuickBooks and HMRC are active. This will help ensure everything goes smoothly when you file.

 

You can refer to this article on fixing common issues with MTD in QuickBooks Online, including problems connecting to HMRC or submitting VAT returns: Fixing MTD (Making Tax Digital) issues in QuickBooks Online.

 

I'm providing you with this resource to guide you in making any necessary corrections to errors in returns you've filed previously: Make VAT adjustments in QuickBooks.

 

Following these steps should prevent future errors and streamline your filing process. If you need assistance while you wait or check your permissions, don't hesitate to reach out. I'm here to help ensure everything is set up for you correctly.
