Frequently asked questions
What specific records do I need to keep for my Self Assessment tax return?
You must keep records of all income from your trade, including sales receipts and invoices. You also need to record expenses, such as office costs, travel, and equipment purchases. HMRC requires you to keep these records for at least five years after the 31 January submission deadline. Using a professional accountant in Southease can help you organise these documents efficiently.
How can an ACCA or ICAEW qualified accountant help my sole trader business?
A qualified accountant from a recognised body like ACCA or ICAEW brings rigorous technical knowledge and ethical standards. They can prepare accurate financial statements, minimise your tax bill legally, and provide strategic advice for growth. Their training ensures they stay updated on changing legislation, which protects you from penalties and helps you make informed decisions.
Do I need to register for VAT as a sole trader?
You must register for VAT if your taxable turnover exceeds the current threshold, which is £90,000. Even if you are below this limit, you can voluntarily register, which might be beneficial if you reclaim VAT on purchases. An accountant can analyse your specific turnover and expenditure to advise on the best course of action for your business.
What is the difference between a tax return and Corporation Tax?
A Self Assessment tax return is used by sole traders to report income and pay Income Tax and National Insurance. Corporation Tax is a separate tax paid by limited companies on their profits. As a sole trader, you do not pay Corporation Tax, but your accountant will ensure you complete the correct forms and meet all HMRC deadlines.
How often should I meet with my accountant in Southease?
Most sole traders benefit from a quarterly meeting to review cash flow and tax provisions. A yearly meeting is essential for preparing your annual accounts and tax return. However, you should also contact your accountant whenever you have a significant business change, such as buying equipment or taking on a partner. Regular communication prevents surprises.
Can an accountant help me if HMRC opens an investigation into my accounts?
Yes, having a qualified accountant is your best defence during an HMRC investigation. They will handle all correspondence, prepare the necessary evidence, and represent you in discussions. Their knowledge of tax law ensures your rights are protected and that you do not pay more than you owe. This professional support reduces stress significantly.
