There are several additional options available to customise the three main fixed-fee packages.
A personal finance coach is like a financial GPS, guiding you through your financial journey. I offer individual sessions as well as discount packages.
As an experienced tax professional, I understand that fees can be a major concern for many individuals.
That’s why I operate with a fixed fee
structure – one fee covers the return, accounts, as well as support throughout the year.
Discounts are usually available in cases where we are completing multiple years together.
I have helped people who has fallen behind to bring their tax affairs up to date in a short amount of time.
Payment is normally made by bank transfer. You can also pay online securely by card or PayPal if you prefer just by clicking on a secure link from the invoice.
Fees increase by an amount in line with inflation each tax year. I aim to minimise this where possible.
I operate fixed-fees, so you know in advance how much it will cost. The fees are clearly shown on the individual package pages.
It is straightforward – please do visit the engagement page to see how we would start working together.
I have simplified the process into four steps, to make things easy to understand.
As well as qualifications, experience in helping businesses like yours is important.
When I founded my own practice in 2006, I had already spent 17 years building up my experience. I’ve run the tax department for a Surrey accountancy firm, and also worked with a big four firm over the years.
Since founding taxhelp.uk.com I have specialised in helping one person businesses.
Anyone can call themselves an “accountant”, even if they are not qualified.
I am dual qualified in tax and accounts. I’m also registered in practice with, and a fellow of, the ATT. The ATT is the oldest and largest professional body for UK tax compliance.
It is important to look for recognised qualifications when selecting an accountant.
Definitely – it is always much better to come forward to HMRC if you are behind than hope they miss you.
Penalties for not declaring income are much higher if you have not come forward on your own.
I have helped people who were several years behind get up to date in a matter of weeks. This also removes all the worry of not knowing what their liabilities could be.
Yes, it is also straightforward – please do visit the engagement page to see how we would start working together.
The only extra steps would be for you to inform your previous accountant of the change. I would then request professional clearance to obtain any relevant transfer information.
Many small business owners make the mistake of trying to do everything themselves. Unfortunately, this could cost them significant time and money.
People usually underestimate the amount of time it will take… That time would be much better spent working on the business rather than in it.
Accountancy fees qualify for tax relief in the accounts, in effect reducing the cost to you.
With the regular changes in the tax regulations, they may also miss out on allowances and reliefs. Or could even claim deductions that are no longer available…
As a result, they could end up paying more tax by trying to do things themselves
Unfortunately, there can sometimes be confusion between a quote and an estimate.
My fees are actual fixed-fees rather than an estimate. My fees shown are also the actual total you pay.
Many practitioners quote their fees excluding VAT. This could mean a nasty surprise if you had not realised this.
I specialise in helping small businesses who operate below the VAT registration limit. For them VAT added onto fees would mean an extra 20% cost to their business, that they were not expecting.
