Frequently asked questions
What should a contractor look for in an accountant?
A contractor should seek an accountant with specific experience in contractor tax affairs, including IR35, limited company accounts, and VAT. Accreditation from bodies like ACCA, ICAEW, or AAT indicates a high standard of professionalism. It is also important to choose a firm that offers proactive advice on salary and dividend planning, and one that communicates clearly about deadlines and HMRC requirements.
How can an accountant help with IR35 compliance?
An accountant can assess your working practices against IR35 legislation, helping determine whether your contract falls inside or outside the rules. They can review contracts, advise on necessary adjustments, and assist with Status Determination Statements. This reduces the risk of HMRC investigations and ensures you pay the correct amount of tax and National Insurance, avoiding unexpected liabilities.
What are the benefits of using an ACCA-accredited accountant?
ACCA-accredited accountants have undergone rigorous training and must adhere to strict ethical and professional standards. They possess up-to-date knowledge of tax laws and regulations, ensuring your tax returns and financial statements are accurate and compliant. Their expertise can help you minimise tax liabilities legally, and their global recognition provides assurance of quality and reliability.
How often should contractors submit a tax return?
Contractors must submit a Self Assessment tax return to HMRC annually. The deadline for online submission is 31 January following the end of the tax year. Additionally, limited company contractors must file annual accounts with Companies House and a Corporation Tax return with HMRC. Quarterly VAT returns may also be required if registered for VAT.
Can an accountant help with VAT registration and returns?
Yes, accountants can advise on whether VAT registration is mandatory or beneficial, handle the registration process, and prepare and submit VAT returns. They can also recommend suitable VAT schemes, such as the Flat Rate Scheme, which may simplify record-keeping and potentially save money. Their expertise ensures compliance with Making Tax Digital requirements.
What is the role of ICAEW in accounting standards?
ICAEW is a professional membership organisation that sets high standards for chartered accountants. Its members must comply with rigorous ethical codes and continuing professional development. When you choose an ICAEW-accredited accountant, you benefit from their commitment to integrity, technical excellence, and adherence to best practices, ensuring reliable and trustworthy financial advice.
