Personal Tax Advice & Returns
Making sure your tax affairs are in order – and keeping pace with the changes ahead.
Personal Taxes
Your tax situation doesn’t always fit neatly into a PAYE box and sometimes even when it’s in a PAYE box, it isn’t dealt with correctly. If you have rental income, investment income, foreign income, or earnings from self-employment alongside employment, your tax affairs can become complicated quickly.
We’ll make sure everything is reported correctly, all available reliefs are claimed, and you’re paying the right amount of tax. And as the tax landscape changes – particularly with the rollout of Making Tax Digital – we’ll make sure you’re always on the right side of the rules.
what it means for you
Making Tax Digital for Income Tax
Making Tax Digital for Income Tax (MTD for ITSA) affects self-employed individuals and landlords whose qualifying income / turnover exceeds HMRC’s thresholds. Under MTD, the traditional annual Self Assessment return is replaced by a new system of quarterly digital reporting – with a Final Declaration (and payment) submitted at the end of each tax year.
The rollout is phased:
- From April 2026: self-employed individuals and landlords with qualifying income or turnover over £50,000
- From April 2027: those with qualifying income / turnover over £30,000
- From April 2028: those with qualifying income / turnover over £20,000
If you’re affected – or if you think you might be in the next year or two – now is the time to get the right systems in place. We can help.
What We Do
- Review of your income, tax position and, where applicable, MTD obligations
- Preparation of Self Assessment returns for those not in MTD
- Advice on income tax, reliefs and allowances
- MTD-compliant digital record-keeping set-up and support
- Quarterly digital submissions and year-end final declaration to HMRC on your behalf
- Review of tax codes produced by HMRC to ensure they are correct and minimise any underpayments
- Tax planning for changes in your circumstances
- Dealing with HMRC on your behalf
