Frequently asked questions
Why do freelancers need a specialist accountant?
Freelancers have unique tax obligations, including Self Assessment and potentially VAT. A specialist accountant understands allowable expenses and can help you plan for tax bills. They ensure you meet HMRC deadlines and avoid penalties, whilst also identifying savings opportunities. This lets you focus on your work, knowing your finances are managed correctly.
What qualifications should I look for in an accountant?
Look for accountants who are members of recognised professional bodies such as ACCA, ICAEW, or AAT. These qualifications ensure the accountant has passed rigorous exams and follows a strict code of ethics. They also require continuing professional development, so your accountant stays up to date with tax law changes and can provide accurate advice.
How can an accountant help with HMRC tax returns?
An accountant can prepare and submit your Self Assessment tax return accurately and on time. They will review your income and expenses to ensure you claim all allowable deductions, reducing your tax liability. They can also handle any correspondence from HMRC, including queries or investigations, providing expert representation and peace of mind.
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 tax on your profits via Self Assessment. A limited company is a separate legal entity, subject to Corporation Tax on its profits. An accountant can explain the pros and cons of each structure, considering your income level, liability, and long-term plans.
When must I register for VAT as a freelancer?
You must register for VAT if your taxable turnover exceeds the current threshold, which is £90,000. Even if you are below this, you may choose to register voluntarily. A specialist accountant can advise on whether voluntary registration is beneficial, help with the application, and manage your ongoing VAT returns and payments.
