Self Assessment Tax Returns
We prepare and submit self assessment tax returns for sole traders, directors and anyone who needs to report income to HMRC. Stay compliant and on time.
What is Self Assessment?
Self assessment is the system HMRC uses to collect income tax (and other taxes) from people who are not fully taxed through PAYE. If you are self-employed, have rental income, significant investment income, or are a director, you may need to complete a self assessment return each year.
Our Self Assessment Service
We handle the whole process: gathering your information, preparing the return, checking for reliefs and allowances, and submitting it by the deadline. We can also advise on payments on account and tax planning for the year ahead.
Making Tax Digital and Self Assessment
Making Tax Digital (MTD) is changing how some taxpayers report. For now, most individuals still use the self assessment system, but MTD for income tax may affect you in future. We keep clients informed and ready for digital reporting.
