Worth knowing
Rules that come up in this work
CIS deductions
CIS turns construction subcontractors into advance taxpayers: a fifth of every labour payment goes to HMRC before they see it. Registering keeps the rate at 20% rather than 30%; gross payment status, for established businesses with a clean record, removes deductions altogether. The annual return is where the overpayment comes back, and filing it early brings the refund sooner.
Confirmation statements and identity verification
The confirmation statement is the annual check that the public register is right: officers, registered office, SIC codes, shareholders and the PSC register. It carries a £50 fee and no financial penalty for lateness, but failure to file leads to compulsory strike-off. The identity verification regime introduced in November 2025 has added a further check to every statement.
Payments on account
A common surprise in Self Assessment is the January payment that is far larger than expected. That is the balancing payment for the year just ended plus the first payment on account for the year ahead, which HMRC sets at half of the bill just calculated. We put the figure in your hands months ahead and tell you how to adjust it legitimately when circumstances change.
The Self Assessment calendar
Self Assessment runs on a fixed annual cycle. Registration by 5 October following the tax year, online filing and payment by 31 January, and a second instalment on 31 July for those making payments on account. The penalties for lateness are automatic and escalate monthly, which is why we file early and chase approvals well before the window closes.
Making Tax Digital for Income Tax
Making Tax Digital for Income Tax began in April 2026 for sole traders and landlords with qualifying income over £50,000, extends to those over £30,000 in April 2027 and is planned for £20,000 in April 2028. It requires digital records in compatible software and four quarterly updates to HMRC each year, with a final declaration replacing the traditional return. Payment dates are unchanged.
Late filing penalties
Lateness is expensive in a way that compounds. For individuals, £100 immediately, then daily penalties, then percentage-based ones at six and twelve months, with interest running on unpaid tax throughout. For companies, Companies House penalties scale with delay and double on repeat, and HMRC adds its own for a late CT600. Filing on time is the cheapest tax planning there is.
Corporation Tax rates and marginal relief
Corporation Tax is not a flat rate. Profits to £50,000 pay 19%, profits above £250,000 pay 25%, and the band between is taxed at an effective marginal rate of 26.5% through the marginal relief mechanism. Associated companies share the thresholds, which catches directors who own more than one company and is the most common cause of underpaid tax in owner-managed groups.
Questions
HMRC Investigation Support questions from Lower Feltham
I received a nudge letter but I think my return is right. What should I do?
Nudge letters ask you to check and either amend or confirm. Do not sign HMRC's certificate without checking thoroughly, because signing a false one is serious. We review the area HMRC has raised, confirm the position and respond. If the return is right we say so to HMRC clearly; if not, we amend before any enquiry is opened.
Can I pay what I owe in instalments?
Usually. HMRC's Time to Pay arrangements spread settlements over months, sometimes years, depending on the amount and your means. Interest runs but further penalties do not if you keep to the agreement. We negotiate the arrangement as part of closing the enquiry, with realistic figures based on your income and assets.
Will my previous accountant's errors be held against me?
The law holds you responsible for your return, but relying on a competent adviser and giving them full information is a reasonable excuse for many penalties. We establish what happened and present it to HMRC. If the adviser was negligent you may have a claim against them, which we help you document.
What if I disagree with HMRC's conclusion?
You can request a statutory review by an officer not involved in the case, which overturns or varies around a third of decisions, and you can appeal to the First-tier Tribunal within 30 days. We advise on the merits honestly and handle both routes; the £249 penalty appeal fee covers a review request or appeal against a penalty decision.
Do I have to attend a meeting with HMRC?
No. You are not obliged to attend a meeting and we often recommend written correspondence instead, which gives considered answers rather than off-the-cuff ones. Where a meeting is useful we attend with you or on your behalf, agree the agenda in advance and take our own notes of what was said.
Can HMRC go back more than one year?
The normal time limit is four years from the end of the tax year, extended to six for careless behaviour and twenty for deliberate behaviour or failure to notify. If HMRC finds an error in one year it will usually ask about others. Part of our job is holding HMRC to the correct time limit for the behaviour actually shown.
