Expert Self Assessment Tax Return Services

Understanding Self Assessment Tax Returns

HMRC requires individuals with complex tax affairs to complete an annual Self Assessment tax return. This includes:

  • Self-employed professionals and sole traders
  • Company directors and business owners
  • Landlords with rental income
  • Investors with significant capital gains
  • High earners with income over £100,000
  • Anyone with untaxed income sources
Important: Unlike PAYE employees, Self Assessment filers must calculate their own tax liability, claim eligible deductions, and ensure timely payments to avoid penalties.

Self Assessment FAQs

Answers to common questions about UK tax returns

What are the penalties for late filing?
HMRC imposes an automatic £100 penalty for returns filed after January 31st. Additional penalties accrue after 3 months (minimum £10/day up to £900), 6 months (5% of tax due or £300, whichever is higher), and 12 months (another 5% or £300). Interest charges also apply on late payments.
What expenses can I claim against my income?
Allowable expenses vary by income type. Self-employed individuals can typically claim business-related costs like office supplies, travel, equipment, and a portion of home expenses. Landlords may deduct maintenance costs, mortgage interest (restricted), and letting fees. We'll identify all legitimate deductions specific to your situation.
How do I register for Self Assessment?
New filers must register with HMRC by October 5th following the tax year in which they became eligible. We can handle this process for you - simply provide your basic details and we'll complete the registration and obtain your Unique Taxpayer Reference (UTR) number.
What is the personal allowance for 2023/24?
The standard personal allowance is £12,570. This reduces by £1 for every £2 of income over £100,000, disappearing entirely at £125,140. Different rules apply for certain types of income, and some individuals may qualify for additional allowances like Marriage Allowance or Blind Person's Allowance.
Is an accountant necessary for Self Assessment?
While not legally required, professional assistance ensures compliance, maximizes deductions, and saves considerable time. Our clients typically save significantly more in tax than our fees cost, while avoiding stress and potential penalties. For complex situations (multiple income streams, capital gains, etc.), professional help is strongly advised.
What records do I need to keep?
You must retain all documents supporting your income and expenses for at least 5 years after the January 31st submission deadline. This includes invoices, receipts, bank statements, P60s, P11Ds, dividend vouchers, and records of any other taxable income. Digital copies are acceptable if legible.
When is payment due?
The balance of any tax owed must be paid by January 31st following the end of the tax year (April 5th). If your bill exceeds £1,000, you may need to make Payments on Account (advance payments toward next year's tax) due January 31st and July 31st.
What if I make a mistake on my return?
You can amend your return within 12 months of the original filing deadline. We recommend professional assistance for amendments to ensure proper disclosure to HMRC and minimize potential penalties. Our service includes free amendments for any errors we might make.
Can I file early?
Yes, you can file from April 6th following the tax year end. Early filing allows more time to budget for tax payments and peace of mind knowing your obligations are met. We offer discounted rates for clients who provide their information before September.
How much does your service cost?
Fees start from £XX for simple returns, with the final price depending on the complexity of your tax affairs. We offer fixed-price quotes after reviewing your situation - contact us for a no-obligation assessment. Many clients find our fees are offset by the tax savings we identify.
