The reminder form emails this site after a security check. It does not include income figures. The final declaration is by 31 January.
Q1 covers 6 April to 5 July and is due on 7 August. Q4 covers 6 January to 5 April and is due on 7 May. Q2 and Q3 follow the same spacing on this page, and they are labelled as the standard pattern until GOV.UK confirms them here.
A quarterly update is not the tax return. The final declaration is still by 31 January. Check GOV.UK before you rely on a date this page has not marked as stated.
