Frequently asked questions
What should a freelancer look for when choosing an accountant?
When selecting an accountant, you should look for qualifications from recognised bodies such as ACCA, ICAEW, or AAT. It is also important to find someone with experience working with freelancers and contractors, as they will understand issues like IR35 and allowable expenses. Check that they offer proactive advice and clear communication, and confirm their fee structure upfront.
How can an accountant help with my Self Assessment tax return?
An accountant can prepare and submit your Self Assessment tax return accurately and on time, ensuring that you claim all legitimate expenses and reliefs. They will calculate your tax liability and advise on payments on account. This reduces the risk of errors and penalties, and saves you valuable time.
What is the difference between ACCA, ICAEW, and AAT qualifications?
ACCA and ICAEW are chartered accountancy bodies, requiring rigorous exams and practical experience. AAT is a vocational qualification focusing on day-to-day accounting skills. All three provide a high standard of expertise, but chartered accountants often have broader strategic knowledge, while AAT members are skilled in bookkeeping and tax preparation.
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 £90,000. Even if you are below this, voluntary registration can be beneficial if you incur VAT on your business expenses. An accountant can advise you on whether registration is right for your circumstances and help you manage your returns.
Can an accountant help me decide between being a sole trader or a limited company?
Yes, an accountant will analyse your income, expenses, and future plans to recommend the most tax-efficient structure. They will explain the implications of each option, including National Insurance, Corporation Tax, and administrative responsibilities. This decision is crucial, and professional advice ensures you make an informed choice.
How often should I meet with my accountant?
Regular contact is beneficial, especially during your first year of freelancing. Many accountants offer quarterly or even monthly check-ins to review your cash flow and tax position. At a minimum, you should meet before your tax return deadline and when you have significant changes income or expenses.
