Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Do I need to visit your Grays office, or can we work together remotely?
While we love welcoming local Essex clients into our office for face-to-face meetings, it is not a requirement. We utilize secure cloud accounting software (like Xero and QuickBooks) and video calls to provide seamless, completely remote accounting services to businesses throughout the UK.
When is the deadline for filing my Self Assessment tax return?
The UK statutory deadline for filing an online Self Assessment tax return and paying any tax owed is the 31st of January following the end of the tax year. We strongly advise our clients to submit their records early in the year to avoid HMRC’s busy season and plan out their cash flow for tax payments.
