Frequently asked questions
What should a contractor look for in an accountant?
A contractor should seek an accountant with specific experience in contractor affairs, including IR35, limited company accounts, and umbrella payroll. Professional accreditation such as ACCA, ICAEW, or AAT indicates a high standard of training and ethical conduct. It is also wise to check that the accountant is familiar with HMRC requirements for contractors and can offer proactive tax planning advice.
How do contractor accountants help with HMRC compliance?
Contractor accountants ensure that all HMRC obligations are met accurately and on time. They prepare and file VAT returns, calculate Corporation Tax, and submit Self Assessment tax returns. They also advise on Making Tax Digital requirements and represent contractors in HMRC enquiries. By keeping abreast of changing legislation, they help contractors avoid penalties and interest charges whilst maintaining full compliance.
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. AAT is an accounting technician qualification, often a stepping stone to chartered status. All three ensure rigorous training and ethical standards. Contractors can choose an accountant from any of these bodies, depending on the complexity of their affairs and budget.
Can contractor accountants help with IR35 assessments?
Yes, many contractor accountants specialise in IR35 and can assess whether a contract falls inside or outside the off-payroll working rules. They review working practices, contracts, and client relationships to determine employment status. This helps contractors avoid unexpected tax liabilities and ensures that the correct taxes are paid. Some accountants also offer contract review services as part of their packages.
How often should a contractor submit a tax return?
Contractors operating through a limited company must file annual accounts and a Corporation Tax return with HMRC, as well as a Confirmation Statement with Companies House. Directors also need to submit a Self Assessment tax return each year. VAT returns are typically quarterly. An accountant can manage all these deadlines, ensuring nothing is missed and penalties are avoided.
What fees can a contractor expect for accounting services?
Fees vary depending on the complexity of the contractor's affairs and the level of service required. Monthly packages for limited company contractors often range from £80 to £200 plus VAT, covering bookkeeping, payroll, VAT returns, and year-end accounts. Some accountants charge separately for Self Assessment or advice on IR35. It is important to compare providers and clarify what is included before engaging.
