The usual deadline for paper Self Assessment tax returns is 31 October. The usual deadline for online Self Assessment tax returns and paying the tax due is 31 January.
An accountant can help ensure that your tax return is accurate and that allowable business expenses, reliefs and deductions are considered correctly. This may help avoid overpaying tax while keeping your return compliant.
You should keep records of business income, expenses, invoices, receipts, bank transactions, mileage and other information needed to support your tax return.
