Hey good afternoon, I receive my TX exam results last night and I was unsuccessful. I am planning to resit my exam in June, 2020. Can you advice me as to whether there will be any material changes to the syllabus other than the tax rates? Regards, Andrew

Hi Craig - no problem - just one query, when will you be sitting the exam as the current online material is based on Finance Act (FA) 2018 and is now relevant for the March 2020 exam only. June 2020 will be based on FA 2019, the study notes for which will be available by the end of this month with the lectures starting to appear during February.

Hi Andrew - sorry to hear that you need to resit, but why are you not taking the March exam and building on what you already know?
