Frequently asked questions
What does a contractor accountant do?
A contractor accountant manages tax affairs for freelance and contract workers. This includes preparing annual accounts, filing tax returns, handling VAT, and advising on IR35. They ensure compliance with HMRC rules and help minimise tax liabilities through legitimate expenses and efficient structures. Many also offer payroll and bookkeeping services.
Why should I choose an ACCA or ICAEW qualified accountant?
ACCA and ICAEW qualifications are globally recognised and require rigorous training and ongoing professional development. Choosing a qualified accountant ensures your tax affairs are handled by someone with verified expertise and ethical standards. They stay updated on HMRC legislation and can provide reliable advice tailored to contractors.
How do contractor accountants help with IR35?
Contractor accountants assess your working arrangements against IR35 rules to determine employment status. They review contracts and working practices, advise on compliance, and help structure engagements to avoid unexpected tax liabilities. They also assist with HMRC investigations and provide documentation to support your position.
What is the difference between Self Assessment and Corporation Tax?
Self Assessment is the system for reporting personal income, including sole trader profits and dividends. Corporation Tax applies to limited company profits. Contractor accountants prepare both returns, ensuring accurate reporting and timely submission to HMRC. They also calculate liabilities and advise on payment deadlines.
Can an accountant help with VAT registration and returns?
Yes, accountants advise on whether VAT registration is mandatory or beneficial. They handle VAT return preparation and submission, ensuring you reclaim allowable input tax and comply with Making Tax Digital. They also assist with VAT schemes like Flat Rate or Cash Accounting to simplify administration.
