Worth knowing
Rules that come up in this work
Switching accountants
The main reasons people switch accountant are surprise invoices, missed deadlines and not understanding what they are being told. Switching involves a clearance letter between the firms, a transfer of records and agent authorisations, and a short handover of the current position. It takes about two weeks and should cost nothing extra.
Closing a company
Striking off a company is cheap but must be done in order: stop trading, file the final accounts and CT600, pay the tax, close VAT and PAYE, distribute the remaining assets, close the bank account, then apply. Anything left in the company at dissolution passes to the Crown. Distributions up to £25,000 are taxed as capital gains; above that a formal liquidation is usually needed to keep capital treatment.
Employer National Insurance
The cost of an employee is more than the salary. Employer National Insurance at 15% above £5,000 a year, the 3% minimum pension contribution, holiday pay, equipment and management time all come on top. The Employment Allowance of £10,500 reduces the National Insurance for most employers with more than one person on the payroll.
Workplace pensions and auto-enrolment
Auto-enrolment duties begin the day you take on your first employee, not when the Pensions Regulator writes to you. Eligible staff must be enrolled, contributions paid every pay period and re-enrolment carried out every three years. Director-only companies without employment contracts are usually exempt. Fines for non-compliance are fixed and escalating.
Dormant companies
Dormancy is a status that is easy to lose. The strict rule is no accounting transactions other than share capital and Companies House fees, which means no bank account activity at all in practice. Fees should be paid personally by the director. A company that traded and has stopped becomes dormant only after its final trading accounts and tax return are filed and HMRC is told.
The trading and property allowances
The first £1,000 of trading income and, separately, the first £1,000 of property income each year is tax free under the trading and property allowances. Below those figures no return is needed for that income. Above them you can deduct the £1,000 allowance instead of actual expenses if that is better, which suits side businesses and single-room lets with few costs.
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.
Questions
HMRC Investigation Support questions from Wimbledon Park
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.
Should I just send HMRC everything they ask for?
No. HMRC is entitled to information reasonably required to check the return, and no more. Requests for private bank statements, several years of records or information about other people are often wider than the law allows. Giving too much lengthens the enquiry and can open new lines. We give HMRC what it is entitled to, promptly and completely.
How long does an enquiry take?
A straightforward aspect enquiry into one item can close in two to three months. A full enquiry into a year's records typically takes six to twelve months, longer if HMRC extends to other years. We keep the process moving by responding within deadlines and pressing HMRC to do the same, and we apply for a closure notice if HMRC stalls.
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.
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.
Do you have an office in Wimbledon Park?
No. IGI Accounting is an online-only firm. We serve Wimbledon Park 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 Wimbledon Park as anywhere else in the country, and why there is nothing to visit and nothing to print.
Is hmrc investigation support in Wimbledon Park really the same price as elsewhere?
Yes. The fee published on this page is what a client in Wimbledon Park 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.
