How does you download the form?

Go here: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/company-tax-return-it-problems

Right-click the link and select Save Link As (or something similar, depending on your browser).
Then save the file and open it directly in Adobe Acrobat or Reader.

I'm attaching it here too, just in case.

Hi try67

I know it's a long shot as you put your message on this site in 2021, but it has been a godsend - could not find any way whatsoever of downloading form WT1, having tried for days, then found your message and managed to do it!!  It worked first time too.

So delighted - HMRC do not make this easy ...   all best wishes to you.  Sent the forms off today - so pleased

Glad to hear it!

You are right HMRC dpontwamnt to make it easy. No change from. 2021 to yours in September 2025. 18 December 2025 the issue remains and the p[eople at HMRC treat me as an idiot!  Even profession accountants dislike the software.  Now I shall try this or send a general covering letter and suffer their wrath in response.  I get the feeling HMRC don't want to signe uip to an Adobe corporate license.
