VAT Rate change
The first change to note is that the standard VAT rate is going back up to 17.5% as at 1st January 2010.

Launch of New On-Line Corporation Tax Filing Service
23 November 2009: HMRC launch new CT Online service
This weekend, HMRC will be taking down the current CT online filing platform, and moving to the new service, ChRIS. To make sure that you can file your CT returns to ChRIS, we have produced an update to the Corporation Tax module and this will be released shortly.
You will need to install this update from 9am on Monday 23rd November
Updating is a doddle, as you can update from within Client Manager. Simply open Client Manager (Start // All Programs // Keytime // Client Manager), then select Update Accountants Suite from the Help // About menu.
