Hello Jparfitt592, 

Welcome to the Community page, 

are you getting a take action on your taxes page? 

If so what does it say when you click into where it says take action? 

Could you send us a screenshot of what you see so we can help you? 

It says take action with a red exclamation when I click on this it brings me to a page saying register for mtd which we have been for over a year , re authorise which I did check vat number which was done . I don’t understand what can be wrong 

Let's perform some troubleshooting solutions to get your VAT connected in QuickBooks Online (QBO), jparfitt592.

I appreciate you for providing us a screenshot of your concern. I've also checked here on our records and there's no reported case about this one. To better isolate this one, let's try signing in to your account using a private or incognito window. This mode doesn't use the existing cache data and helps us confirm browser-related issues. Here's how:

• For Google Chrome browser: Ctrl + Shift + N
• For Mozilla Firefox browser: Ctrl + Shift + P
• For Safari browser: Command + Option + P

Then, try reconnecting with HMRC again. If it works, go back to your regular browser and clear the cache to delete those temporarily stored files and browsing history. The overtime collection of data can create corruption, however, removing this should fix the issue. You can also use other use a supported, up-to-date browser to roll out the possibility of a browser-related issue.
