Developments to the process of completing the annual return online
In our last edition we informed you that the OSCR proposed several changes to the Annual Return required from Scottish Charities, with a consultation period on the changes which ran to 6 October 2023.
Following on from the consultation, the OSCR has recently made some improvements to the online annual return process. There are three main updates:
- Updated information boxes will offer support and guidance as you complete your online annual return.
- The OSCR has included additional questions to gather more relevant information about charities in Scotland. Going forward, the aim is to publish more of this information on the Scottish Charity Register.
- An email containing feedback from your online annual return will be dispatched to the primary contact, providing tailored guidance for your charity.
