Who Needs to File a Self-Assessment Tax Return?

Some people believe that it is only the self-employed, or those who run a small business as a sole proprietor, need to worry about completing a self-assessment tax return. However, things are not quite that cut and dried.

It’s certainly true that the self-employed – freelancers who are not tied to a single employer in any way, for example – are subject to self – assessment – and those who have yet to convert their fledgling business into an LLC will need to as well. However, you may also need to do so if your income sources are solely derived from any of the following:

  • Rental income
  • Investment income
  • Foreign income
  • Share income
  • Foreign pension income
  • Maintenance payments

You will not, however, need to file a self-assessment tax return if you only receive PAYE income or your non-PAYE income for the year is under a certain amount. Often one of the first things, as self assessment accountant specialists Pearl Lemon Accountants do for clients is help them determine if they should be filing a self-assessment tax return at all, or if they fall into a different income category that will call for an alternative tax approach.

How Pearl Lemon Accountants Can Help You

Despite official claims to the contrary, self-assessment tax returns take time to complete. Many people find navigating HMRC and effectively documenting their income and expenditure challenging. Self assessment accountants can be invaluable in simplifying this process and ensuring accurate tax submissions.

When it comes to filing your information at the end of the tax year, many business owners spend hours tallying up their numbers and calculating their taxable revenue. And then wondering if they have done everything right, and second guessing all their hard work.

To complicate matters even further, the GOV website isn’t particularly user-friendly, and you’ve undoubtedly had to contact HMRC in the past to figure out where you should be doing what and when.
