Frequently asked questions
What should I look for when choosing an accountant for my freelance business?
When selecting an accountant for your freelance business, you should look for someone who is qualified and regulated by a recognised body such as ACCA, ICAEW, or AAT. It is also important to find an accountant who has experience working with freelancers in your specific industry. They should be proactive in offering tax planning advice and be easily accessible for queries. Check their reviews and ask about their fee structure to ensure it fits your budget.
How can an accountant help me with my Self Assessment tax return?
An accountant can prepare and file your Self Assessment tax return on your behalf, ensuring that it is accurate and submitted before the HMRC deadline. They will review your income and expenses to identify all allowable deductions, which can reduce your overall tax bill. Additionally, they can advise you on how much to set aside for tax and help you understand your payment on account obligations, preventing any surprises.
What is the difference between an ACCA and an AAT qualified accountant?
ACCA (Association of Chartered Certified Accountants) is a global professional body offering a higher-level qualification that covers advanced areas such as audit, taxation, and financial management. AAT (Association of Accounting Technicians) is a more entry-level qualification focusing on day-to-day accounting tasks like bookkeeping and preparing accounts. Both are respected, but ACCA members often have more extensive experience and can offer more complex advice.
Do I need to be VAT-registered as a freelancer?
You must register for VAT if your taxable turnover exceeds the current threshold of £90,000 in a rolling 12-month period. However, you can also choose to voluntarily register even if your turnover is below this limit. Voluntary registration may allow you to reclaim VAT on business purchases, but it also requires you to charge VAT on your invoices. An accountant can help you decide whether voluntary registration is beneficial for your specific situation.
Can an accountant help me with HMRC investigations or tax disputes?
Yes, an accountant can provide invaluable support if HMRC opens an investigation into your tax affairs. They can handle all correspondence with HMRC on your behalf, prepare the necessary documentation, and represent you during any inquiries. Their expertise ensures that your rights are protected and that you respond appropriately to any requests. Having a professional by your side reduces stress and helps achieve a fair resolution.
How often should I meet with my accountant to discuss my finances?
The frequency of meetings with your accountant depends on the complexity of your financial situation and your personal preferences. Many freelancers meet with their accountant quarterly to review their income, expenses, and tax provisions. Others may only meet annually around the Self Assessment deadline. A good accountant will be available for ad-hoc queries and will schedule regular check-ins to ensure you remain on track with your financial goals.
