Highly recommend working with Dead Simple Accounting. James sorted our first year accounts and tax return and made the whole process incredibly simple. James is responsive, informative and massively helpful!

James sorted out my Self Assessment in under 3 messages. There’s minimal pain or hassle on my side, and I’m confident that it’s been done correctly. A huge thank you James!

PR Work

Fantastic service! James helped me file my self assessment and was brilliant all the way through. From finding the required information, to explaining the various options, James was able to help me save money and turn it all around very quickly. I’ve already recommended Dead Simple to a couple of friends who have had the same experience as me, so I would certainly recommend to anyone who needs accounting professionals.

I highly recommend Dead Simple Accounting. James and his team are very responsive and incredibly helpful. They have helped me with accounting services for two limited companies and my personal taxes I’ve always been impressed with their level of professionalism.

You won’t usually need to submit a self assessment tax return if your only income is from your wages. But if you’re self-employed, rent out a property, have considerable savings income, dividend income or perhaps foreign income, you’ll need to file a tax return. Here’s a tool to check if you need to submit one: Click here.

A self-assessment is a form that individuals are required to fill out and submit to HMRC to report their untaxed income, gains, and other financial details. It calculates what tax, NI & student loan (if applicable) is due to be paid when the tax isn’t deducted from your income automatically (such as with your wages). Here’s a tool to check if you need to submit one: Click here.

The expenses you can claim depends on the type of business you run! Have a look at the type of businesses we work with, if you see yours on the list, open the page and read our more in-depth guides on what expenses you can claim

You can register yourself for a Government Gateway account which allows you to manage your HMRC services online. Once you have received your user ID, you can log in and register for Self Assessment by clicking “add tax”.

The tax year runs from 6th April to 5th April. The online submission deadline is 31st January following the tax year end. So the 2022/23 tax year needs to be filed by 31 Jan 2024. Sooner the better, we say!

There is a £100 penalty immediately after the due date for filing (even if there is no tax to pay or the tax due has already been paid). Additional penalties can be charged by HMRC as follows:

Over 3 months late – a £10 daily penalty up to a maximum of £900
Over 6 months late – an additional £300 or 5% of the tax due if higher
Over 12 months late – a further £300 or a further 5% of the tax due if higher.

In particularly serious cases there is a penalty of up to 100% of the tax due. To avoid any penalties, we recommend you organise your finances and submit the return in good time before the 31st Jan deadline! We can help!

No. We streamline processes to make workflow as efficient as possible, & can guide you on how to share your records electronically. We use encrypted, secure folders to receive your info; and if you’re using accounting or banking software to track your finances we can guide you on how to share that securely with us too.

When we file the tax return, we’ll email you the payment instructions. But you can pay your self assessment tax online by following this link and clicking “Pay Self Assessment Now”. There are a few options on the HMRC page, including paying by bank transfer, direct debit, cheque(!) & even paying using your HMRC app.
