We don't start our tax forms until April - and have until September to collect the bits of paper and fill it in. But it's not difficult - only 4 sides of A4 or so if I remember correctly.
Although, when we first came home, Manx tax still regarded me as one of S2C's goods and chattels - my income was regarded as part of his (which was very insulting, but also funny, because at that time I was the wage earner and he was the stay at home parent) - so I told him he could do all the paper work, I was obviously not capable of it! Even though the law has, since, changed I still give everything to him and get him to fill in the paperwork.
But I did help D-d with hers the first time - it took us about 10 minutes and she made a profit. (She got back about £500 as tax credit as well as the £50 or so she had paid as taxes in her summer job that year.)
