Frequently asked questions
What specific services do accountants for freelancers offer?
Accountants for freelancers typically offer a range of services including preparation and submission of Self Assessment tax returns, bookkeeping, VAT registration and returns, and advice on allowable expenses. They also help with tax planning, setting up a limited company, and ensuring compliance with HMRC regulations. Many provide ongoing support throughout the year, not just at year end, helping you manage cash flow and understand your tax liabilities.
How can an ACCA or ICAEW qualified accountant help with HMRC enquiries?
An ACCA or ICAEW qualified accountant is trained to handle HMRC enquiries and investigations on your behalf. They can communicate directly with HMRC, prepare the necessary documentation, and ensure that your rights are protected. Their expertise in tax law and procedures helps to resolve enquiries efficiently, reducing stress and the risk of penalties. Having a professional representative is invaluable if your tax affairs are selected for review.
What is the difference between a sole trader and a limited company for freelancers?
As a sole trader, you are personally responsible for business debts and pay Income Tax on profits via Self Assessment. A limited company is a separate legal entity, meaning you pay Corporation Tax on profits and may take a salary and dividends. Accountants can advise on which structure is more tax-efficient for your circumstances, considering factors like income level, liability, and future growth plans.
Do I need to register for VAT as a freelancer?
You must register for VAT if your taxable turnover exceeds the current VAT threshold, which is £90,000 for the 2024/25 tax year. However, you can also choose to register voluntarily, which may be beneficial if you incur VAT on business expenses or supply to VAT-registered clients. An accountant can help you assess whether voluntary registration is right for you and manage your VAT returns.
How often should I meet with my accountant?
It is advisable to meet with your accountant at least once a quarter to review your financial position, discuss cash flow, and plan for upcoming tax payments. More frequent meetings may be beneficial if your business is growing or undergoing significant changes. Regular contact ensures that you are making informed decisions throughout the year and helps to avoid any last-minute surprises at tax return time.
What records do I need to keep for my Self Assessment tax return?
You need to keep records of all income and expenses, including invoices, receipts, bank statements, and records of any personal income. For business expenses, you should retain receipts for items such as equipment, travel, and professional fees. HMRC requires you to keep these records for at least five years after the 31 January submission deadline. Your accountant can guide you on the most efficient way to organise and store your records digitally.
