Good news for Members - HMRC Approval

ANLP continue to act upon member feedback and enquiries...

You asked – if ANLP Membership Subscriptions were approved tax deductible professional fees when completing a UK tax return.

We acted – following some further research, ANLP applied to HMRC for recognition as providers of Professional Membership Subscription

After review by HMRC, they have confirmed that the application has been successful:

‘ANLP has been approved by the Commissioners for HM Revenue and Customs under Section 344 of the Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003 with effect from 6th April 2019’.

This means that when you complete your tax return this year, you can list your ANLP membership fees as an approved professional subscription in the relevant section of your tax return and obtain the relevant income tax relief.

HMRC, like many organisations, is currently experiencing backlogs due to the pandemic, so if ANLP do not appear on the approved list when you do your tax return, you are advised to explain that the organisation has only recently been approved and quote the following head office reference: T1644/2/2020.

This is highly significant for you because your ANLP Membership has now been recognised at the highest level as a Professional Membership subscription...another endorsement of our professionalism and credibility...and yours!
