Customer questions

Can HMRC analyse my social media to detect undeclared income?

Yes — it’s already testing such methods. A post about your new car can sometimes trigger… a letter from the tax office.

Our advice: be transparent before HMRC gets curious.

What if HMRC already knows about my mistakes but is waiting for me to admit them?

It’s not a myth. HMRC often has the data long before it reveals it.

But a voluntary disclosure can save thousands of pounds — and your reputation.

With WiseTax, you only need to come clean once — and regain peace of mind for years to come.

Does HMRC have access to my data from crypto exchanges?

Yes — under international agreements, most major exchanges already share information with HMRC.However, not everything they send is correctly interpreted.

The real skill lies in translating blockchain data into a language HMRC can actually understand.

If an AI trader invests on my behalf, am I the one who has to pay tax — or is it the AI?

As long as artificial intelligence doesn’t have a National Insurance Number, the responsibility is still yours.

But the first legal cases about “robotic advisers” and their tax status are already emerging — and the line between human and algorithm is getting thinner every year.

Can artificial intelligence report me to HMRC for an error in my tax return?

Theoretically — yes. Practically — not yet, but it’s only a matter of time.

That’s why the smartest approach is to combine human tax expertise with AI tools — before HMRC does the same.

Will HMRC start collecting taxes in real time from my transactions before I even see them?

Yes — and faster than most people are ready for. By 2026, HMRC plans to introduce systems that automatically report every online transaction.

In this new world of digital taxation, it’s up to you to decide what the algorithm gets to see.
