I'm trying to do my 2020-2021 tax assessment and presumably I've missed the part where it asks for Income from the estates of deceased persons. As I can't find where to input the figures.
I've been sent an R185 ( Estate Income) from my late Father's solicitor/executor to input the figures on my tax return, but it says to use the SA107 'Trusts etc.' pages of the tax return.
Does anyone know what I have to do to get this trust etc. page to come up?

I'll answer my own question, in case anyone else might need the answer.
No, you need to fill in a paper form and send it in to the tax office. There is no option to do this on-line.
I used the HMRC helpline to gain this information.

Yeah it's either paper before the paper deadline, or an accountant can submit it using their paper thing.


I'm stuck with an accountant who drags out the R185 process until about 2 days before the paper filing deadline, and then thinks it's ok.

I'll be paying my own accountant again, but still, it's a nonsense that you can't do this online via normal self-assesment, as it's HMRC who send the R185 to you in the first place, and have on their own database!
