Completing and submitting your personal tax return can be a stressful experience. If you accidentally make any errors, you could face a penalty from HMRC – adding to the pressure. To make matters worse, you must submit your Personal Tax Return by the 31st January or you will be penalised.
Our sister company Churchill Knight & Associates Ltd has a dedicated Personal Tax Department, who, since 1998 has successfully completed over 20,000 personal tax returns. Whether you are required to pay tax via your self-assessment tax return, or recuperate tax with a rebate, Churchill Knight will ensure your tax return is submitted accurately and on time.
A Personal Tax Return, otherwise known as a self-assessment (Form SA100), is HMRC’s way of finding out how much tax and National Insurance (NI) is due on any income which hasn’t been taxed at source.
If you need to file a self-assessment, you will need to report your earnings (including dividends) for the relevant tax year and file your return (usually online) by the 31st January deadline following the end of the tax year on 5th April. HMRC will then use this information to calculate how much tax and NI you owe.
You may be required to complete a personal tax return if:
- You are a self-employed worker
- You qualify as a higher rate payer of tax
- You operate as a Director for your Personal Service Company (limited company) and pay yourself via dividends
- You have income from properties (e.g. rent) within the United Kingdom
- You receive foreign income
- You have accepted payments that were untaxed, including capital gains or losses
