Obtaining the HMRC mobile app
HMRC’s free tax app is available to download from the App Store for iOS and from the Google Play Store for Android. The latest version of the app includes some updated functionality to update your name, save your National Insurance number to your digital wallet and to obtain help from HMRC's digital assistant.
The APP can be used to see:
- your tax code and National Insurance number
- your income and benefits
- your income from work in the previous 5 years
- how much you will receive in tax credits and when they will be paid
- your Unique Taxpayer Reference (UTR) self-assessment
- how much self-assessment tax you owe
- your Child Benefit
- your State Pension
The app can also be used to complete a number of tasks that usually require the user to be logged on to a computer. This includes:
- get an estimate of the tax you need to pay;
- make a self-assessment payment;
- set a reminder to make a self-assessment payment;
- report tax credits changes and complete your renewal;
- access your Help to Save account;
- using HMRC’s tax calculator to work out your take home pay after Income Tax and National Insurance deductions;
- track forms and letters you have sent to HMRC;
- claim a refund if you have paid too much tax;
- update your name and / or postal address;
- save your National Insurance number to your digital wallet; and
- choose to be contacted by HMRC electronically, instead of by letter.
