Frequently asked questions
What specific services do accountants for freelancers typically provide?
Accountants for freelancers usually offer a range of services including preparing and filing your Self Assessment tax return, managing your VAT registration and returns, and providing advice on allowable expenses. They can also assist with bookkeeping, setting up a limited company, and preparing annual accounts. Many will offer ongoing support throughout the year to help you plan for tax payments and keep your finances organised.
How can an ACCA qualified accountant help with HMRC compliance?
An ACCA qualified accountant has rigorous training and knowledge of HMRC regulations. They can ensure your tax returns are accurate and submitted on time, reducing the risk of penalties. They will also advise on your obligations, such as registering for VAT if your turnover exceeds the threshold, and help you respond to any HMRC queries or investigations. Their expertise provides peace of mind that you are fully compliant.
What is the difference between an accountant and a tax return filing service?
A tax return filing service simply submits the figures you provide to HMRC. In contrast, an accountant offers a more comprehensive service, including reviewing your income and expenses to identify allowable deductions, providing tax planning advice, and answering your financial questions. An accountant can also help with wider business matters, such as setting up a limited company or managing cash flow, offering proactive support beyond just filing.
Why is it important to choose a certified accountant for freelance work?
Choosing a certified accountant, such as one registered with ICAEW or AAT, ensures that you are working with a professional who adheres to strict ethical and technical standards. They are required to maintain their knowledge through continuing professional development. This certification provides a level of assurance regarding their competence and reliability. It also means they have appropriate insurance and are subject to disciplinary procedures if they fail to meet professional standards.
How do I know if I need to register for VAT as a freelancer?
You must register for VAT if your taxable turnover for the previous 12 months exceeds the current VAT threshold, which is £90,000. You can also register voluntarily, which may be beneficial if you incur VAT on your business purchases. An accountant can help you assess your turnover, advise on whether voluntary registration is right for you, and manage your VAT returns to ensure you remain compliant with HMRC.
What records should I keep for my accountant to prepare my tax return?
You should keep records of all your income and expenses, including invoices, receipts, and bank statements. This includes records of any business mileage, equipment purchases, and professional subscriptions. If you are VAT-registered, you also need to keep a record of your VAT on sales and purchases. Your accountant will need these documents to accurately prepare your Self Assessment tax return and to support any claims you make for allowable expenses.
