Definition of Self Assessment

Self-assessment is a form of income tax return introduced in 1996 that obliges all taxpayers in the UK by law to maintain records of their income and all types of capital gains so as to enable annual tax returns to be completed by the individual, if they are notified of such a requirement by the government. This takes the burden of tax calculation away from the government and places it upon he individual.
