Worth knowing
Rules that come up in this work
Confirmation statements and identity verification
Companies House has tightened its requirements under the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act: every company needs a registered email address and an appropriate registered office, every statement includes a lawful-purpose declaration, and every director and PSC must verify their identity. The confirmation statement, due annually with a £50 fee, is where most of this is confirmed.
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 Self Assessment calendar
Self Assessment runs on a fixed annual cycle. Registration by 5 October following the tax year, online filing and payment by 31 January, and a second instalment on 31 July for those making payments on account. The penalties for lateness are automatic and escalate monthly, which is why we file early and chase approvals well before the window closes.
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.
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.
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.
The VAT registration threshold
Watching the rolling twelve-month turnover figure is one of the quiet jobs of monthly bookkeeping, because the £90,000 VAT threshold arrives silently. Crossing it brings quarterly returns, Making Tax Digital software and a decision about schemes. Crossing it late brings a bill for VAT you could not recover from customers and a penalty for failing to notify.
Questions
Cash-Flow Forecasting questions from Woodlands
What happens after the forecast is delivered?
You receive the model, a briefing call to walk through it, and a written note of the assumptions and the pinch points we see. You can run it yourself from there, or take the £99 monthly refresh so we keep it live. Many clients start with a one-off forecast and move to the retainer once they see its value.
How quickly can you produce a forecast?
A 13-week forecast within five working days of receiving your data; a 12-month forecast with scenarios within ten. Funding packs depend on the lender's format but typically two weeks. If you have a deadline for an application, tell us when you book and we plan backwards from it.
Can a forecast show me whether I can afford a hire or a purchase?
Yes, that is one of its main uses. We add the hire or purchase as a scenario and show the cash effect month by month, including the point at which it pays for itself if it does. Decisions that look fine on a profit basis often fail on cash timing, and the forecast shows where.
How do seasonal businesses use forecasting?
To see the trough. Seasonal businesses typically make their profit in a few months and spend the rest of the year surviving on it, with VAT and tax payments falling in the quiet period. The 12-month forecast shows how deep the trough goes and whether a facility is needed to bridge it, well before the bank does.
What is a 13-week rolling forecast?
A week-by-week projection of cash in and cash out for the next quarter, built from your debtor book and payment patterns, your creditors and their terms, payroll, rent, loan repayments and every tax date, giving the forecast bank balance at the end of each week. It is the standard tool for managing short-term cash and is refreshed as actuals arrive.
How is the £199 forecast built?
From your bookkeeping and bank data, your aged debtors and creditors, your payroll, your known commitments and the tax calendar. We analyse how quickly your customers actually pay rather than when they are due, which is where most forecasts go wrong, and we document every assumption so you can change it. You receive the model and a short briefing.

The next four dates that apply to cash-flow forecasting are shown at the top of this page, calculated from today. For Woodlands clients we diarise every one of them from the day you join and send reminders before each, so the work is done in good time rather than in the last week before a penalty.
