Frequently asked questions
What should a contractor look for in an accountant?
A contractor should look for an accountant with specific experience in contractor tax affairs, including IR35, limited company accounts, and dividend planning. Professional qualifications such as ACCA, ICAEW, or AAT indicate a high standard of training and ethical compliance. It is also important to check that the accountant is regulated and can handle HMRC correspondence, VAT returns, and Self Assessment efficiently.
How do contractor accountants help with IR35?
Contractor accountants help with IR35 by reviewing contracts and working practices to determine employment status for tax purposes. They advise on whether a contract falls inside or outside IR35 and assist with any necessary status determinations. Accountants also help contractors prepare for changes in legislation and ensure that tax is calculated correctly, reducing the risk of HMRC investigations and unexpected tax bills.
What is the difference between ACCA, ICAEW, and AAT qualifications?
ACCA and ICAEW are chartered accountancy bodies, with ICAEW focusing on England and Wales and ACCA having a global reach. Both offer rigorous training and require ongoing professional development. AAT is a technician-level qualification that provides a strong foundation in accounting and can lead to further study. All three ensure that accountants meet high standards of competence and ethics.
How often do contractors need to file a tax return?
Contractors operating through a limited company must file a Corporation Tax return annually, along with statutory accounts. They also need to submit a Self Assessment tax return if they receive dividends or have other personal income. VAT returns are typically filed quarterly if registered. Accountants ensure all deadlines are met and that HMRC receives accurate information on time.
Can an accountant help reduce a contractor's tax bill?
Yes, a qualified accountant can help reduce a contractor's tax bill through legitimate tax planning. This includes advising on the optimal salary and dividend mix, maximising allowable expenses, and making pension contributions. They also ensure that all available reliefs and allowances are claimed. It is important that tax planning is done within HMRC rules to avoid penalties.
