Warrington accountants who keep you ahead of HMRC

The online self assessment tax return for the tax year that ended on 5 April must reach HMRC by 31 January. Any tax you owe, plus your first payment on account, is due the same day. A second payment on account is due on 31 July. Miss the January deadline and HMRC charges an automatic £100 penalty, even if you owe no tax.

You must register for VAT if your VAT-taxable turnover goes over £90,000 in any rolling 12-month period, or you expect it to in the next 30 days. You can also register voluntarily below the threshold — sometimes that saves money. We'll look at your figures and tell you which is best.

Making Tax Digital (MTD) for Income Tax means sole traders and landlords keep digital records and send HMRC quarterly updates using compatible software. It started on 6 April 2026 for qualifying income over £50,000, and extends to income over £30,000 from April 2027 and over £20,000 from April 2028. We can choose the software, set it up and file the updates for you.

Yes. We can form your company with Companies House, register it for corporation tax, and explain your deadlines: accounts are due at Companies House nine months after your year end, corporation tax is payable nine months and one day after it, and the tax return is due twelve months after it.

You don't have to have one, but most sole traders find it saves time, stress and often tax. We prepare your accounts, complete your self assessment return, make sure you're claiming every allowable expense and remind you before every deadline.

Of course. Switching is simple: we contact your previous accountant for the professional clearance and handover of your records, and become your agent with HMRC. You don't need an awkward conversation.
