Frequently asked questions
What should I look for when choosing an accountant for my freelance work?
When selecting an accountant for your freelance business, look for a professional with relevant qualifications, such as ACCA, ICAEW or AAT membership. You should also consider their experience with freelancers specifically, as they will understand the nuances of Self Assessment and allowable expenses. Check that they are regulated and have appropriate professional indemnity insurance. Finally, consider their communication style and availability, as you will want someone who responds promptly to your queries and provides clear advice throughout the year.
How can an accountant help me with my Self Assessment tax return?
An accountant can prepare and submit your Self Assessment tax return to HMRC on your behalf, ensuring that all income and expenses are reported correctly. They will help you identify allowable deductions, which can reduce your tax bill, and they will ensure that your return is filed on time to avoid penalties. They can also advise you on payments on account and help you plan for future tax liabilities, giving you greater financial certainty.
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. However, you may also choose to register voluntarily if it benefits your business, for example if you incur significant VAT on your expenses. An accountant can assess your situation and advise whether voluntary registration is worthwhile. They can also handle your VAT returns and ensure you comply with HMRC requirements.
What is the difference between ACCA, ICAEW and AAT qualified accountants?
ACCA and ICAEW are chartered accountancy bodies that require rigorous exams and practical experience, and their members often work with larger businesses or complex tax matters. AAT qualifications focus on technical accounting skills and are often held by bookkeepers or accounting technicians. All three represent high standards of professionalism, but the right choice depends on your specific needs. A chartered accountant may offer more strategic advice, whilst an AAT member might provide cost-effective day-to-day support.
Can an accountant help me if I receive a letter from HMRC?
Yes, an accountant can assist you if you receive a letter from HMRC. They can review the correspondence, help you understand what is being asked, and respond on your behalf if you authorise them to do so. They can also represent you during any enquiries or investigations, ensuring that your rights are protected. Having a professional handle such matters can reduce stress and help resolve issues efficiently.
How often should I meet with my accountant during the year?
The frequency of meetings depends on your business complexity and personal preference. Many freelancers meet with their accountant quarterly to review their financial position and plan for tax payments. Others only meet once a year to prepare their tax return. However, regular communication can be valuable for proactive tax planning and ensuring you are not missing opportunities to save money. Your accountant can advise on a suitable schedule based on your circumstances.
