Common questions

Self assessment questions

What is a self assessment tax return?

It's how you tell HMRC about income that hasn't already been taxed, such as self-employed profits, rental income or dividends. HMRC then works out the tax you owe.

I've missed the deadline. What now?

File as soon as possible to keep the penalties down. We can get your return in quickly and appeal penalties where there's a reasonable excuse.

Who needs to do a self assessment tax return?

You usually need to file if you're self-employed with income over £1,000, a landlord, a partner in a business partnership, or you have income HMRC hasn't taxed, such as large dividends, foreign income or capital gains. If you're not sure, ask us.

When are self assessment tax returns due?

Paper returns are due by 31 October and online returns by 31 January after the end of the tax year. Any tax owed is also due on 31 January.

What are payments on account?

Advance payments towards next year's tax bill. If your last bill was over £1,000, you usually pay two instalments, each half of last year's bill, on 31 January and 31 July.

Having had issues with accountants this year, I recently made the change over to work with West Yorkshire Accountancy, and what a decision I made! They’ve been nothing but helpful throughout the months they’ve handled my finances, I’d recommend these guys to anybody who’s serious about their finances.
