Frequently asked questions
What does a contractor accountant do?
A contractor accountant manages the financial affairs of freelancers and limited company directors. This includes preparing annual accounts, filing tax returns, calculating Corporation Tax, handling VAT, and advising on IR35. They also help with payroll, dividend planning, and expense claims. Their expertise ensures compliance with HMRC rules whilst maximising tax efficiency.
Why should I choose an ACCA or ICAEW qualified accountant?
ACCA and ICAEW qualifications indicate that an accountant has completed rigorous training and adheres to professional standards. These bodies require ongoing professional development, so your accountant stays current with HMRC legislation. Choosing a qualified professional reduces the risk of errors and gives you confidence that your tax affairs are handled correctly.
How do contractor accountants help with IR35?
Contractor accountants review your contracts and working practices to determine your IR35 status. They help you understand whether you fall inside or outside the legislation and advise on compliant contract wording. If HMRC challenges your status, they can represent you and provide evidence to support your position.
What is included in a typical contractor accounting service?
Most contractor accounting services include annual accounts preparation, Corporation Tax returns, Self Assessment filing, VAT returns, payroll for directors, and dividend advice. Many also offer bookkeeping software, IR35 contract reviews, and support with HMRC enquiries. Packages vary, so compare providers to find one that suits your needs.
How often do I need to file a tax return?
Limited company directors must file a Corporation Tax return annually and a Self Assessment tax return each year. VAT returns are typically filed quarterly. Your accountant will manage deadlines and ensure submissions are made on time to avoid penalties. They will also advise on payments on account if applicable.
Can I switch accountants mid-year?
Yes, you can switch accountants at any time. The process usually involves informing your current accountant and providing your new accountant with authority to act on your behalf. Professional firms handle the transition smoothly, requesting relevant records and ensuring continuity. It is advisable to check for any notice periods or outstanding fees.
