Published today, HMRC says, “Check the availability and any issues affecting the Report and pay Capital Gains Tax on UK property service.” It also describes the page as “Report and pay Capital Gains Tax on UK property: service availability and issues.” For accountants and property-tax advisers, the practical next step is to review the live GOV.UK HMRC guidance before attempting returns or payments this week.
HMRC published an operational notice on 23 September
That matters because this service often sits inside time-sensitive property work. A return or payment can be routine on paper, then slip if the portal is slow or unavailable. Advisers should treat this as a live status check, not background reading.
This notice is operational, not balance-sheet evidence, so our data lens does not infer distress or non-compliance from it alone. What it does provide is a clear verification step for finance teams: confirm the HMRC service status before promising a filing date, payment date, or same-week funds movement linked to a property disposal.

In practice, that is the useful creditor read-across. Process friction at a government payment point can alter timing, even when the underlying transaction is still progressing. That is a timing risk, not a credit conclusion.
If a debtor expects to clear arrears from a UK property sale, do not assume the tax step will complete smoothly this week. Ask the acting accountant or property-tax adviser to confirm the service status first. Then ask for evidence once the return and payment have actually been accepted.
A sensible workflow is simple. Check the HMRC status page, note the time checked, and keep a screenshot on file. Then match that with the debtor’s promised payment date and any solicitor or adviser update. This guidance cannot prove how long any issue will last or how many users it will affect, so verification matters more than reassurance.
Alongside that, a company-level evidence check helps you test whether the expected receipt sits with an otherwise stable debtor or a business already showing fresh filing strain.
