Worth knowing
Rules that come up in this work
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.
CIS deductions
The Construction Industry Scheme affects both sides of a construction payment. Contractors must verify subcontractors, deduct the right amount, issue statements and file monthly, with penalties from £100 for each late return. Subcontractors suffer deductions on turnover and recover the excess at the year end. Limited company subcontractors offset deductions against PAYE monthly instead.
The VAT registration threshold
The £90,000 VAT threshold is measured over any twelve consecutive months, which is why a strong quarter can tip a business over unexpectedly. Registration must follow within thirty days of the end of the month the threshold was crossed. Below the threshold, voluntary registration is worth considering when customers are VAT-registered businesses and costs carry VAT.
Corporation Tax rates and marginal relief
Companies pay Corporation Tax at 19% on profits up to £50,000 and 25% on profits over £250,000. Between those figures marginal relief applies, producing an effective rate that rises gradually and a marginal rate of 26.5% on each pound in the band. The thresholds are divided by the number of associated companies, so a director with two companies has thresholds of £25,000 and £125,000 for each.
Salary versus dividends
The salary-and-dividend split is the central planning decision for an owner-managed company. Salary costs employer National Insurance above £5,000 but is deductible; dividends are not deductible but attract lower personal rates and no National Insurance. The optimum changes each April with the thresholds and depends on the director's other income, so it should be set deliberately every year.
Director's loan accounts
The most common tax problem in owner-managed companies is an overdrawn director's loan account: drawings taken during the year that were never declared as dividends or salary. The company faces a 35.75% charge on the balance outstanding nine months after the year end, and the director may have a benefit in kind. We review the account before every year end to clear it properly.
The Self Assessment calendar
Four dates govern Self Assessment: 5 October to register, 31 October for paper returns, 31 January to file online and pay, and 31 July for the second payment on account. Missing the January date triggers an automatic £100 penalty before any tax is even considered, so we treat it as the fixed point around which the rest of the year is planned.
Questions
HMRC Investigation Support questions from Luxted
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.
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 penalties can HMRC charge?
For an inaccurate return, 0% to 30% of the extra tax for careless errors, 20% to 70% for deliberate ones and 30% to 100% for deliberate and concealed, with higher ranges for offshore matters. Within each range the penalty depends on whether the disclosure was prompted and how much you help. We work to secure the lowest point in the applicable range and suspension where available.
What is a voluntary disclosure and should I make one?
Telling HMRC about an error before it asks. Unprompted disclosures attract much lower penalties, often nil for careless errors, and are the right course when you know a return was wrong. The Digital Disclosure Service, Let Property Campaign and Worldwide Disclosure Facility are the main routes. Our fee from £599 covers preparing and negotiating the disclosure.
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.
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.
