Frequently asked questions
What should I look for when choosing an accountant for my freelance work?
When selecting an accountant, look for recognised qualifications such as ACCA, ICAEW, or AAT. Check their experience with freelancers and their knowledge of Self Assessment and HMRC requirements. It is also important to consider their communication style and whether they offer proactive advice. A good accountant will help you with tax planning, record keeping, and meeting deadlines, ensuring your finances are managed correctly.
How can an accountant help me with my Self Assessment tax return?
An accountant can prepare and submit your Self Assessment tax return on your behalf, ensuring accuracy and compliance with HMRC. They will identify allowable expenses you may have missed, calculate your tax liability correctly, and advise on payments on account. This reduces the risk of errors and penalties, saving you time and giving you confidence that your tax affairs are in order.
Do I need to register for VAT as a freelancer?
You must register for VAT if your taxable turnover exceeds the current threshold, which is £85,000. However, you may also choose to register voluntarily if it benefits your business. An accountant can advise you on whether voluntary registration is worthwhile, help you complete the registration process, and manage your VAT returns. They can also guide you on schemes like the Flat Rate Scheme if applicable.
What is the difference between ACCA, ICAEW, and AAT qualifications?
ACCA and ICAEW are chartered accountancy bodies that require rigorous training and exams, often leading to roles in practice or industry. AAT qualifications focus more on practical bookkeeping and accounting skills. All three are recognised and respected, but the right choice depends on your needs. An accountant with any of these qualifications has demonstrated competence and adheres to professional standards.
Can an accountant help me if I operate through a limited company?
Yes, an accountant can provide valuable support if you run your freelance business through a limited company. They can help with Corporation Tax returns, payroll for yourself as a director, and ensuring you comply with Companies House filing requirements. They will also advise on salary versus dividend strategies to optimise your tax position and keep your business financially healthy.
How often should I meet with my accountant?
The frequency of meetings depends on your business complexity and personal preference. Many freelancers meet their accountant quarterly to review finances and plan for tax payments. Others may only communicate during tax season. Regular contact is beneficial for proactive tax planning and staying on top of changes in legislation. Your accountant can suggest a schedule that suits your needs and keeps you informed.
