Worth knowing
Rules that come up in this work
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.
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.
Crypto records and reporting
HMRC treats cryptoassets as property. Swapping one token for another, spending crypto or gifting it are all disposals for Capital Gains Tax, and staking and lending rewards are income. Gains are computed under pooling rules with same-day and 30-day matching. From 2026 HMRC receives data from exchanges worldwide under the Cryptoasset Reporting Framework, so unreported activity is increasingly visible.
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.
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.
Record keeping
Good records are the difference between a quick enquiry and a long one. For the self-employed, five years after the filing deadline; for companies, six years from the year end; for VAT, six years. Photographs of receipts, PDF statements and software exports all count. The requirement is to keep records, not paper, and a well-organised cloud folder satisfies it.
Making Tax Digital for Income Tax
MTD for Income Tax replaces one annual return with quarterly digital updates and a year-end declaration, submitted from software. The threshold is gross trading and property income, measured two years earlier, and started at £50,000 in April 2026 before falling to £30,000 in April 2027. Anyone affected needs digital record keeping in place before their start date, not after.
Questions
HMRC Investigation Support questions from Saint Pancras
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.
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.
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.
Do you have an office in Saint Pancras?
No. IGI Accounting is an online-only firm. We serve Saint Pancras 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 Saint Pancras as anywhere else in the country, and why there is nothing to visit and nothing to print.
Is hmrc investigation support in Saint Pancras really the same price as elsewhere?
Yes. The fee published on this page is what a client in Saint Pancras 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.
