Worth knowing
Rules that come up in this work
CIS deductions
Under the Construction Industry Scheme, contractors deduct 20% from a registered subcontractor's labour invoices, or 30% if unregistered, and pay it to HMRC. The subcontractor reclaims the deductions against their actual tax through Self Assessment, usually producing a refund because deductions are on turnover while tax is on profit. Contractors file a monthly return by the 19th.
Confirmation statements and identity verification
Every company must file a confirmation statement at least once a year, within fourteen days of its review date, with a £50 Companies House fee. Since November 2025 directors and people with significant control must also verify their identity with Companies House, and the confirmation statement is where existing officers confirm they have done so during the transition year.
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
Penalties are the clearest reason to work to deadlines. A Self Assessment return one day late costs £100 regardless of whether any tax is due; three months late adds £10 a day. Late company accounts start at £150 and reach £1,500, and double if the previous year was also late. None of this is negotiable afterwards except through a narrow reasonable-excuse appeal.
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
The tax year runs from 6 April to 5 April. Anyone new to Self Assessment must register by 5 October after the end of the tax year in which their untaxed income began. The online return and the balancing payment are due by 31 January, with a second payment on account on 31 July where they apply. Paper returns have an earlier deadline of 31 October and are rarely sensible.
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.
Questions
HMRC Investigation Support questions from Roehampton
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.
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.
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.
What does the £299 first stage cover?
Reviewing HMRC's letter and the return or period concerned, assessing what HMRC is likely to be looking at and your exposure, arranging agent authorisation, and preparing and sending the first response within HMRC's deadline. At the end you know where you stand and what the next stage would cost, and you decide whether to proceed.
What is the difference between a compliance check and an investigation?
A compliance check is HMRC's standard term for any review of a return, from a single question to a full examination of a year's records. Most are routine. A Code of Practice 9 investigation is reserved for suspected serious fraud and works very differently, offering immunity from prosecution in return for full disclosure. We tell you which you are facing from the letter.
Is hmrc investigation support in Roehampton really the same price as elsewhere?
Yes. The fee published on this page is what a client in Roehampton 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.
Do you have an office in Roehampton?
No. IGI Accounting is an online-only firm. We serve Roehampton and every other UK postcode remotely, with records sent by WhatsApp or email and everything filed electronically. The absence of local premises is why the fee for hmrc investigation support is the same in Roehampton as anywhere else in the country, and why there is nothing to visit and nothing to print.
