Struggling to fund your July tax payment?

tiemadmin • 10 July 2025

The second 2024-25 payment on account for self-assessment taxpayers is due on 31 July 2025. If you are finding it difficult to meet this tax bill, there are options available to ease the burden.

Taxpayers with liabilities of up to £30,000 can use the online Time to Pay (TTP) service to set up instalment payments. This service is available without the need for direct contact with an HMRC advisor and can be accessed up to 60 days after the payment deadline.

To be eligible for the online service, the following conditions must be met:

  • No outstanding tax returns
  • No other unpaid tax debts
  • No existing HMRC payment plans

For those who do not qualify for the online option, alternative payment plans can be arranged. These plans are typically tailored to the individual's or business's specific financial situation, allowing repayment over an agreed period.

HMRC will generally grant extended payment terms if they believe you will be able to pay the full amount in the future. However, if HMRC determines that additional time won't resolve the issue, they may require immediate payment and take enforcement actions if the debt remains unpaid.
