Hello annxie74,
When talking about VAT returns, there are three procedures that we need to consider:
- Before submitting the VAT Return
- Submit the VAT Return to HMRC
- Marking the VAT Return as filed in QuickBooks Online
Once you're done reviewing the reports, you can follow these steps to submit the VAT Return:
- Select Taxes on the left menu and go to VAT.
- Look for the Ope returns and click Submit return.
- Enter the correct dates and amounts.
- Select File online with HMRC.
- Enter your Government Gateway User ID and Government Gateway Password.
Then, you can select Yes, I want to proceed.
- QuickBooks Online will now connect to HMRC to submit your VAT return.
For more details about the submission process, you can use this link: Submit a VAT return in QuickBooks Online.
You can always get back to me if you have additional concerns about this. Have a great day!
