Frequently asked questions
What should I look for in a contractor accountant?
Look for a qualified professional with ACCA, ICAEW, or AAT accreditation who specialises in contractor affairs. They should understand IR35, dividend planning, and allowable expenses. Check that they are regulated and experienced with limited companies and Self Assessment. A specialist will also offer fixed monthly fees and proactive advice, ensuring you remain compliant with HMRC whilst maximising your income.
How much does a contractor accountant cost?
Fees vary depending on the level of service and the complexity of your affairs. Many contractor accountants charge a fixed monthly fee, typically between £75 and £150 plus VAT. This usually covers bookkeeping, payroll, VAT returns, and annual accounts. Some firms offer additional services such as IR35 contract reviews for an extra charge. Always compare providers to ensure value for money.
Can an accountant help with HMRC investigations?
Yes, a qualified accountant can represent you in dealings with HMRC, including compliance checks and investigations. They will handle correspondence, prepare documentation, and negotiate on your behalf. Having a professional in your corner reduces stress and can lead to a more favourable outcome. Ensure your accountant is experienced in dispute resolution and familiar with HMRC procedures before engaging their services.
What is the difference between ACCA, ICAEW, and AAT?
ACCA and ICAEW are professional bodies for chartered certified and chartered accountants respectively, offering high-level qualifications. AAT is an association for accounting technicians, focusing on practical bookkeeping and accounts preparation. All three ensure members meet strict standards. When choosing a contractor accountant, verify their membership with the relevant body to confirm their credentials and ongoing professional development.
Do I need a specialist contractor accountant for IR35?
Yes, IR35 compliance is complex and requires specialist knowledge. A contractor accountant well versed in IR35 can review your contracts, assess your working practices, and advise on whether you fall inside or outside the legislation. They can also help you prepare for HMRC enquiries. Using a general accountant without IR35 expertise may leave you exposed to significant tax liabilities and penalties.
How do I switch accountants mid-year?
Switching accountants is straightforward. First, choose a new firm and inform them of your intention. They will contact your current accountant for professional clearance and request your records. You do not need to wait until the end of the tax year. A good accountant will manage the transition smoothly, ensuring your Self Assessment and VAT returns are submitted without disruption.
