Worth knowing
Rules that come up in this work
Closing a company
Voluntary strike-off is available only to solvent companies. One that owes money it cannot pay needs a creditors' voluntary liquidation through a licensed insolvency practitioner, and directors who dissolve an insolvent company face personal consequences. For a solvent company the process takes three to four months from filing the DS01, with notice to creditors and shareholders within seven days.
Switching accountants
You can switch accountant at any point in the year. The new firm requests clearance and your records from the old one, which cannot withhold your own documents though it may hold its own working papers until its fees are settled. Agent authorisations with HMRC and Companies House are transferred, and the next deadline is picked up without a gap.
Allowable expenses
Expense claims are where a return is won or lost in an enquiry. The test is wholly and exclusively for the trade; where a cost is mixed, the business proportion can be claimed if it can be identified. Capital items such as equipment and vans are relieved through capital allowances rather than as expenses, except under the cash basis where they are simply deducted when paid.
Record keeping
Record keeping is a legal obligation with a penalty of up to £3,000 for failure, but its real value is in making every other filing cheaper and more defensible. Keep invoices, receipts, bank statements, mileage logs and any HMRC correspondence, digitally if you like, for five years after the relevant filing deadline for individuals and six years for companies and VAT.
The 60-day property CGT return
Selling UK residential property that was not your main home for the whole period of ownership triggers a separate Capital Gains Tax return, due within 60 days of completion along with payment of the tax. This is in addition to the annual Self Assessment. The gain is taxed at 18% or 24% depending on your income band, after the £3,000 annual exempt amount.
Crypto records and reporting
Most crypto holders have taxable events they do not recognise, because every swap is a disposal even when no pounds change hands. The computation requires the complete transaction history from every exchange and wallet, pooled by asset with HMRC's matching rules applied. Exchange-generated tax reports are frequently wrong because they cannot see transfers between a user's own wallets.
The trading and property allowances
Not every small income needs a tax return. The trading allowance exempts the first £1,000 of self-employment or casual income and the property allowance does the same for rental income, each measured on gross receipts. They cannot be combined with rent-a-room relief on the same income, and claiming the allowance means giving up the expense deduction for that source.
Questions
Capital Gains Tax questions from Noak Hill
What if I sell shares from an employee share scheme?
It depends on the scheme. Shares from a SAYE or SIP scheme have specific cost rules and sometimes income tax has already been paid on part of the value. Options exercised and sold on the same day may have no gain at all. We need the scheme documents and the exercise and sale figures, and we apply the correct treatment for each.
Do transfers between spouses trigger tax?
No. Transfers between spouses or civil partners living together are at no gain and no loss; the recipient takes over the original cost. This allows both annual exemptions and both basic rate bands to be used on a later sale, which is a common and legitimate way to reduce the tax on a jointly planned disposal.
What is the 60-day property return?
When a UK resident sells UK residential property and tax is due, they must file a return through HMRC's Capital Gains Tax on UK property service and pay the tax within 60 days of completion. This is separate from and in addition to the annual Self Assessment. Late filing penalties mirror Self Assessment: £100 immediately, then daily and tax-geared penalties.
What are the Capital Gains Tax rates for 2026/27?
The annual exempt amount is £3,000. Gains above it are taxed at 18% to the extent they fall within your unused basic rate band and 24% above it, for all asset types including residential property. Gains qualifying for business asset disposal relief are taxed at 14% in 2025/26, rising to 18% from April 2026, on up to £1 million of lifetime gains.
What costs can I deduct from the gain?
The purchase price, stamp duty and legal fees on purchase, capital improvements that are still reflected in the asset at sale (extensions, new kitchens, not repairs), and selling costs including agent and legal fees. For shares, dealing costs and stamp duty. For inherited assets, the probate value is the cost.
I sold my former home that I later let out. Is it all taxable?
No. Private residence relief exempts the gain for the period you lived there plus the final nine months of ownership, and certain periods of absence can qualify. The let period is taxable. Lettings relief now applies only where you shared occupation with the tenant. We apportion the gain by days and claim every qualifying period.
Is capital gains tax in Noak Hill really the same price as elsewhere?
Yes. The fee published on this page is what a client in Noak Hill, Havering pays and what a client in any other part of England pays. It is confirmed in writing before work starts and the invoice matches the quote. Where a higher package applies because your situation is more complex, we say so at the quote stage, never afterwards.

No. IGI Accounting is an online-only firm. We serve Noak Hill, Havering and every other UK postcode remotely, with records sent by WhatsApp or email and everything filed electronically.
