Self Assessment

 

Self Assessment is a system HM Revenue & Customs uses to collect Income Tax.


Whether you are thinking about this year’s tax return or further ahead to retirement, we are able to support you and help make your financial decisions easier.

Whatever stage you are at in your life, we will help you get the most out of your money.

We have the expertise to take the headache out of the online form-filing, and the compliance aspect of Self Assessment as well as avoiding falling foul of HMRC regulations. We can provide you with practical advice on personal tax positions and the planning opportunities available to you. We can complete tax returns, calculate any tax liability and advise you on exactly when to make payments and how much to pay.

You may have income outside of your day to day employment, your income from savings or dividends may be above the tax-free threshold, or your (or your partner’s) income may be over £50,000 while receiving child benefit. This is not an exhaustive list, but in all of these circumstances you would need to complete a Self Assessment Tax Return.
