SELF ASSESSMENTS / TAX RETURNS
If you are running a business as a sole trader or you are an individual such as a landlord letting out property and in receipt of rental income, or a sub-contractor who has had tax stopped at source, you will be required to file an annual tax return to HMRC.The deadline date for filing your return is 31st January following the end of the tax year.You could be penalised for not doing so.
At Laura O'Brien's Accountancy Services we use HMRC approved software to complete your tax return, calculate your tax liability, file your return online and liaise with you on the amounts due to be paid and the dates they are due.
We will also investigate whether there is anything you could be doing to reduce your tax bill and advise you accordingly on this.Let us take the worry away from filing your annual tax return so that you can concentrate on running your business!

PAYROLL
If your business grows to a point where you need to start employing people, we can provide you with a weekly or monthly payroll processing service using our HMRC approved software. We understand that running payroll can be a daunting process when it comes to understanding the duties required by you as an employer. Meeting your obligations to HMRC can be confusing and time consuming. Especially with the added extra responsibilities of auto enrolment pension contributions that has come in to force over the last few years. The auto enrolment legislation requires employers to automatically enrol certain workers into a qualifying workplace pension scheme and make contributions.
