Self Assessment Tax Returns in West Sussex

You typically need to file a Self Assessment Tax Return if you are self-employed, a sole trader, a landlord with rental income, or if you have untaxed income such as dividends, savings interest, or foreign income. Additionally, if you earn over £100,000 or need to pay the High Income Child Benefit Charge, you must also register for Self Assessment. Our team can help you determine if you need to file.

We also act as your HMRC agent, dealing with any correspondence and ensuring you claim all allowable expenses and reliefs. We provide a comprehensive, stress-free service from start to finish.

If you miss the deadline, HMRC will automatically issue a late-filing penalty, which starts at £100 even if you have no tax to pay. Further penalties apply if you're more than three months late. To avoid this, it's essential to file on time. Our team ensures your return is submitted well ahead of the deadline, so you never face penalties.

We offer transparent fixed-fee packages with no hidden costs. The exact fee depends on the complexity of your tax affairs, such as the number of income sources.
