expressed an interest in online filing, you will have received a
user name and password.
The advantages of OSCR online
There are a number of benefits to completing your information
online:
- Our new service is secure and more convenient for you to
use.
- You can save your changes and return later to complete your
submission.
- The system ensures that you can only submit correct and
complete information - minimising failed forms and reducing hassle
for your charity.
- OSCR Online allows you to complete Annual Returns and
Supplementary Monitoring Returns electronically, giving you more
flexibility and control.
- You can either attach your accounts as a .pdf or send us your
accounts in the post in hard copy. Whichever suits.

Unsure?
OSCR online is not compulsory. We hope to encourage and persuade
you that our online services are easy and convenient. If you have
not expressed an interest, you will receive a paper form as part of
your normal reporting cycle. This should arrive with you
within a few days of your accounting year end. You should
complete and submit this form along with a copy of your most recent
set of accounts.
The new Annual Return form is much shorter and easier to
complete. We've reduced it from five sides of A4 to only
two. The Supplementary Monitoring Return is largely
unaltered, giving us the more detailed financial information that
we require. But for the majority of charities, submission to
OSCR, even in paper format, is much easier.
The new form will also display your charity's submission
deadline. This will be 9 months from your accounting year
end.
We are hoping that charities will continue to move to our online
services. OSCR Online brings benefits to the sector, to the public,
and to OSCR.
