I've had the forms since April and I have until January to submit my tax return online. But I just don't understand it. I managed a cash flow spreadsheet today though, so progress at least.

wait... forms since April.. can turn in by January? aren't we a little late here.. isn't it supposed to be "forms in January, turn in by April 15"???
British system is very different, Marc. I'm lazy, just shove all the receipts and bills into a folder during the year then add my statements for the business a/c and P60s for paid employment when they arrive in May and give it to the accountant who charges me around £100 for sorting it out. The most extra tax I've had to pay on top of Pay As Your Earn is 37p so I reckon he's earning his money! Don't stress over it as you didn't make a profit in your first year so there's no way you actually owe any tax.
See, it is confusing! If I only registered as trading in April do I need to include P60s from my previous job?? Who knows. Seems a bit extreme to get an accountant to do it for me when it's for a few days, but next year definitely!
