Martin Lewis has issued an urgent warning to millions of people who may not be able to get their tax returns done on time by today's deadline.
According to HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC), nearly 8.7 million taxpayers have already filed their tax returns. If those due to file their tax return have not done so by today, they will face an initial fine of £100 which could be followed by further penalties.
Additional penalties can also be enforced for paying late of 5 per cent of the tax unpaid at 30 days, six months, and 12 months. Appearing on ITV's This Morning Show, Mr Lewis answered a viewer's question who stated they would be unable to finish their tax return by today's deadline.
