What Is Self-Assessment and Who Needs It?
Self-assessment is the system HMRC uses to collect income tax from individuals who do not have tax deducted automatically.
You will usually need to complete a self-assessment tax return if you are:
- A sole trader or self-employed professional
- Earning over £1,000 from self-employment
- A company director receiving dividends
- Receiving untaxed income such as rental income
If you are unsure whether you need to file, we can review your situation and give you clear advice.
