Frequently asked questions
What specific services do accountants for freelancers typically offer?
Accountants for freelancers usually provide a range of services including preparing and filing your Self Assessment tax return, bookkeeping, VAT returns, and advice on allowable expenses. They can also assist with setting up a limited company, managing Corporation Tax, and offering general financial guidance. Many also help with tax planning to minimise your liabilities and ensure you meet all HMRC deadlines.
How can an accountant help me with my HMRC Self Assessment tax return?
An accountant will review your income and expenses, ensure all allowable deductions are claimed, and accurately complete your Self Assessment tax return. They will submit it to HMRC on your behalf before the deadline, reducing the risk of errors and penalties. They can also advise on payments on account and help you plan for future tax bills, ensuring you are not caught out by unexpected liabilities.
Why should I choose an ACCA or ICAEW qualified accountant over a general bookkeeper?
ACCA and ICAEW qualified accountants have undergone rigorous training and examinations, ensuring a high level of technical knowledge and ethical standards. They are regulated by professional bodies, which provides you with greater protection and recourse. Their expertise extends beyond simple bookkeeping to complex tax planning, business advice, and strategic financial management, which is crucial for growing your freelance business.
What is the difference between a freelancer and a limited company for tax purposes?
A freelancer can operate as a sole trader, where you are personally responsible for business debts and pay tax on your profits through Self Assessment. Alternatively, you can set up a limited company, which is a separate legal entity. This means you pay Corporation Tax on profits and may take a salary and dividends. An accountant can explain the pros and cons of each structure and help you decide which is most tax-efficient for your circumstances.
How do accountants stay updated with changing tax laws and HMRC regulations?
Professional accountants are required to undertake continuous professional development (CPD) to maintain their qualifications. This ensures they stay abreast of all changes in tax legislation, HMRC guidelines, and digital initiatives like Making Tax Digital. They also have access to technical updates from their professional bodies, such as ACCA and ICAEW, ensuring that the advice you receive is current and compliant.
Can an accountant help me if I have missed the deadline for my tax return?
Yes, an accountant can assist you even if you have missed the deadline. They can help you file your return as soon as possible to minimise any late filing penalties. They can also communicate with HMRC on your behalf to explain the circumstances and potentially appeal against penalties if there are reasonable grounds. It is always advisable to seek professional help immediately to mitigate further fines.
