The Low Incomes Tax Reform Group (LITRG) is an initiative of the Chartered Institute of Taxation (CIOT) to give a voice to the unrepresented. Our mission is to: ‘Target for help and information those least able in the community to afford to pay for advice and make a real difference to their understanding of the systems of taxation and related benefits whilst working to make them more equitable and accessible for their needs.’ Our home website (www.litrg.org.uk) contains useful guides, factsheets and information on all aspects of tax and tax credits affecting low income taxpayers and tax credit claimants, as well as reports and consultation responses submitted to the government on a wide range of tax issues. The LITRG has also set up three project websites dedicated to a specific area of tax or group of taxpayers: 1. www.revenuebenefits.org.uk – Set up in partnership with Rightsnet, this website provides advisers with access to information on a range of HMRC products including tax credits, child benefit information and the transition to universal credit. 2. www.taxguideforstudents.org.uk – A website dedicated to helping students and their advisers with their tax affairs. It provides simple, clear and impartial advice broken down into manageable chunks, with information on a range of topics including student loans, refunds and employment. 3. www.disabilitytaxguide.org.uk – A website aimed at providing resources and information for those in receipt of direct payments and as a result have to operate a payroll for their care workers or personal assistants. The LITRG is comprised of a dedicated team of Technical Officers and volunteers, including ex-HMRC officials, former partners of the Big-4 and senior heads of other charitable organisations. We are keen to hear from you if you feel you could contribute to the LITRG. More information can be found on our 'Becoming a volunteer' page – http://www.litrg.org.uk/about-us/becoming-volunteer.
