What are Self-Assessment 'Payments On Account' or POAs#AskAMS

If you have recently started trading as self-employed, your first income tax bill will be due in the January following your first trading year-end date and will include an extra 50% as a Payment on Account (POA).

This payment goes towards the tax bill for the following year. In addition to this, a further POA of 50% will have to be paid the following July. So, within a six month period, you may well have to pay two years’ worth of income tax!
