When using TaxCalc, the tax return should automatically have the tax rate applied based on the postcode of the address on the return. Therefore the return will automatically apply the Scottish rate if there is a Scottish postcode. If this doesn't happen, please ensure that you are running the latest version of TaxCalc before trying again. If for any reason, you need to manually change the option applied by TaxCalc, please complete the below steps: SimpleStep Mode: Personal details > Your address > Select the applicable radio button on screen as to which tax rates to use.
