Self Assessment Tax Returns

We can help you get organised if you want to keep your own records or sort through statements, invoices and receipts if you want it completely taken off your hands.

We can either set up a small business software package for you or design spreadsheets that will automatically total your turnover. We can show you how to keep these up to date or do it for you. If we do it for you we will need to receive all your documents on a regular basis (either monthly, quarterly or annually depending on how many documents your business processes).

We can help you complete your annual tax return either manually or 'on line'.

The tax office has a 31st January deadline for receiving tax returns and making the first payment. If the return is sent to the tax office before 31st September (i.e. 4 months earlier) then it will calculate the correct tax for you to pay. Any return submitted after that date will mean that you have to work out yourself how much tax to pay. Any return submitted after 31st January or any underpayment will be charged interest.

If you have all the necessary documents to us before 31st August we can help you submit your tax return in time for a correct payment in January.

If you have all the necessary documents to us before 31st December we can help you submit your tax return in time for 31st January. We can also help you estimate how much your tax liability will be. This however will only be an estimate and any interest on underpayments will not be our responsibility.

If you cannot get all the necessary documents to us until January we may still be able to help you submit your tax return on time. Unscheduled work on self assessment returns in January will be charged at a higher hourly rate.
