Tax returns without the January panic
Whether you are a sole trader, a company director, a landlord or a subcontractor, your Self Assessment return deserves better than a deadline-week scramble. We prepare and file it properly, from records kept properly.
What the service covers
- Registration with HMRC if you are filing for the first time
- Your return prepared from your records and filed online before the deadline
- Every allowable expense and relief claimed, nothing chanced
- Your tax bill, and any payments on account, explained in plain terms before anything is due
- CIS subcontractors: deductions reconciled against statements, and refunds claimed where tax has been overpaid
- Landlords: rental accounts prepared and property pages completed correctly
- HMRC correspondence handled as your agent
Fees are agreed in advance, as with everything we do, and the earlier in the year we start, the smoother it all runs. A return prepared in the autumn also means you know January's bill months before January.
Who typically needs a return
Sole traders and partners, company directors with dividend income, landlords with rental income, higher earners with untaxed income, and subcontractors taxed under CIS, who are very often due money back. If you are unsure whether Self Assessment applies to you, our plain-English explainer covers the basics: what is Self Assessment?
Self Assessment questions
What do you need from me?
Your records of income and expenses for the tax year, and anything HMRC has sent you. If we already keep your books, we have most of it; if your records are a carrier bag of receipts, bring the bag and we will take it from there.
When should I get my return done?
The online filing deadline is 31 January after the tax year ends, but filing early changes nothing about when you pay and everything about how calm the process is. Early filers also learn their bill months in advance, which makes budgeting for it straightforward.
I have been fined for late filing before. Can you help?
Yes. We bring outstanding returns up to date, check whether any penalties can reasonably be appealed, and set up a rhythm so it does not happen again.
