Pay what the law requires, and not a penny more.
We plan ahead so that your tax bills are reduced, or at the very least anticipated. When HMRC asks questions, we act for you from the first letter through to tribunal.
II.01
Self-Assessment
We act as your agent with HMRC, so that your personal return is accurate and you pay the correct amount of tax. We have never let a client down with a late filing.
Self-employed people and most company directors must declare their income and dividends every year, and the form is notoriously hard to follow. We prepare your return together with your accounts and advise on how and when to pay. A posted cheque only counts once HMRC has the cleared funds.
- Returns for the self-employed, partners and directors
- Dividend, rental and investment income
- Payments on account planned in advance
- An unbroken record of on-time filing
II.02
Corporation Tax
Accurate CT600 returns, structured to use every legitimate relief, with us acting as your agent in all dealings with HMRC.
A return left until the last minute forces you to find cash immediately. We review your accounts early, structure the return tax-efficiently and give you time to plan the payment. If your deadline is close, call us. We are used to solving this problem.
- CT600 preparation and filing
- Reliefs and allowances, including R&D tax credit assessments
- Tax-efficient structuring of the return
- Acting as your agent with HMRC
II.03
Tax Planning
Year-round planning so that you know your liability long before it falls due, with legal savings built in.
Tax rules change every Budget. We keep your business compliant with each change and look for the legitimate savings it creates. Regular management accounts let us estimate your year-end liability accurately and act while there is still time.
- Personal and corporate tax planning
- Profit extraction for directors and shareholders
- Year-end estimates and timing advice
- Budget-change reviews
