Frequently asked questions
Why should a contractor use a specialist accountant rather than a general practitioner?
Specialist contractor accountants understand IR35, dividend planning, allowable expenses and limited company structures that general practitioners may not handle daily. They can advise on the most tax-efficient salary and dividend mix, review contracts for compliance risks and ensure Self Assessment returns reflect contractor-specific rules. This focused expertise typically saves contractors more than the accountancy fee itself.
What qualifications should I look for in a contractor accountant?
Look for membership of recognised bodies such as ACCA, ICAEW or AAT. These credentials confirm that the accountant has passed rigorous examinations, follows a professional code of ethics and undertakes continuing professional development. Membership also provides access to professional indemnity insurance and a complaints procedure, giving contractors added protection and confidence.
How do contractor accountants help with HMRC compliance?
Contractor accountants prepare and file accurate tax returns, calculate VAT liabilities, manage Corporation Tax payments and ensure Self Assessment deadlines are met. They keep abreast of HMRC rule changes, advise on Making Tax Digital requirements and represent clients in enquiries. This proactive approach reduces the risk of penalties, interest charges and unwanted attention from HMRC.
Can an accountant help me decide between a limited company and umbrella employment?
Yes. A qualified accountant can analyse your contract rate, expenses, IR35 status and long-term goals to compare take-home pay under both structures. They will explain the administrative duties of running a limited company, such as filing accounts and VAT returns, against the simplicity of umbrella payroll, helping you choose the most suitable and compliant option.
What ongoing support can I expect from a contractor accountant?
Most contractor accountants provide bookkeeping, payroll, VAT returns, annual accounts, Corporation Tax computations and Self Assessment filing. Many also offer IR35 contract reviews, tax planning advice and access to online accounting software. Ongoing support typically includes unlimited email or phone queries, ensuring contractors receive timely guidance throughout the year rather than only at deadline time.
