    Hello there
    I have just started preparing for taxation to sit in March Sitting. I am using the course notes and lectures provided here along with BPP text and revision kit.
    My question is that the text i have is fro 2014 exam papers it says and i have noticed minor changes like personal allowance figure etc. I am really using the text to have a thorough understanding so my question is if there are major changes from 2014 till now? and can i still study from this text and also practice the questions in the revision kit of 2014?
    Thanks

    No – you should only use material for FA 2014. The OT notes and lectures will provide you with the required technical knowledge but you will need to purchase the relevant exam / revision kit from one of the approved providers such as BPP

    First of all thanks a lot for the prompt reply and also have to say i have been through 4 chapters so far and would like to thank you for amazing set of notes and video lectures. So easy to understand the calculations so far
    And now for one last time let me just clear what i understand from your response. So you are suggesting to buy FA 2014 since the one i have right now are FA 2013 for both kit and text for BPP. Is that right? Also is there a lot of syllabus changes between those two?
    Sorry to be asking it over again,just clearing it for one last time

    Thanks and Appreciate all the help

    Yes you must use only FA 2014 material of which the essential ingredient outside of what you have available here on the OT site is the exam / revision kit. It is not that there are syllabus changes but changes in the legislation within that syllabus.
    The study text is not an essential purchase in terms of achieving a pass but if you have the capacity to purchase then it is an excellent source of reference when needed and either BPP or Kaplan produce good material.
    Good luck with your studies and keep up the good work!
