Frequently asked questions
What should a contractor look for in an accountant?
A contractor should seek an accountant with experience in IR35, limited company accounts, and contractor-specific tax planning. Verify qualifications such as ACCA, ICAEW, or AAT, and ensure they are regulated. Check reviews and ask about their familiarity with HMRC compliance for freelancers and interim managers. A specialist will help maximise tax efficiency and avoid common pitfalls.
How can an accountant help with Self Assessment and HMRC?
An accountant prepares and files your Self Assessment tax return, ensuring all income and allowable expenses are correctly reported to HMRC. They calculate your tax liability, advise on payments on account, and handle correspondence. This reduces the risk of errors or penalties, saving you time and stress whilst ensuring compliance with current legislation.
Why is it important to use an ACCA or ICAEW qualified accountant?
ACCA and ICAEW qualifications guarantee a high level of technical training and ethical standards. These professionals undergo rigorous examinations and continuous professional development. Hiring a qualified accountant ensures your financial affairs are managed by someone recognised for expertise, providing confidence that your tax returns, VAT, and Corporation Tax matters are handled correctly.
What tax obligations do contractors typically have?
Contractors often need to manage VAT, Corporation Tax, Self Assessment, and potentially PAYE for salaries. They must also consider IR35 status and comply with Making Tax Digital. An accountant can clarify which obligations apply, register you with HMRC, and ensure timely submissions, helping you avoid penalties and focus on your business.

Can an accountant assist with switching from sole trader to limited company?
Yes, an accountant can guide you through incorporation, register your company with HMRC, and advise on tax implications. They will help with opening a business bank account, setting up payroll, and understanding Corporation Tax and dividend rules. This ensures a smooth transition and ongoing compliance, tailored to your contractor circumstances.
