Annual Returns are due within 6 months of a charity’s balance date (financial year-end), or a longer period if an extension has been granted.

The first annual return due on the 31/12/2011 will cover less than six months after the charity is registered. For this reason the charity is granted an exemption to filing their first annual return under s41 (1) of the Charities Act 2005, and the first annual return will be due by the 31/12/2012. Liam Beashel (Acting Manager Registration) has granted an exemption for annual return filing fees for years ending June 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014 under s43 of the Act. They will need to re-apply for future years.
