How do I use the What If? Planner?
You can use the What If? Planner to forecast next year’s tax liability by following these steps:
- Go to the Check & Finish screen.
- Click on What If?
- Enter the income figures:
- Click on Use 2019/20 Values and use Add/Edit for each section to adjust the figures – if the information is the same or similar to the current tax year.
- Click on Add/Edit for each section and enter the projected income in the boxes – if the information is different or you want to enter it manually.
- Click on Close to build on next year's tax calculation.
When you’ve declared all of the income, you’ll see the estimated final tax liability due for next year.
Please Note: This information doesn’t get filed online so you’ll still need to complete the tax return as required for that tax year.
