Frequently asked questions

Do you help with IR35 and off-payroll working?
We can review your contracts from a tax perspective and highlight IR35 risk areas, but we don’t offer full legal status determinations. We’ll ensure the accounts and Corporation Tax reflect your position correctly.
Is bookkeeping included or do I have to do it myself?
Basic quarterly bookkeeping from your bank statements is included up to the transaction limit in your package. If you have higher volume or want full monthly management accounts, we can add this as an upgrade.
Can you also run my payroll?
For most consultant Ltd companies we set up a simple director-only payroll. This is included for one director. If you have employees, we can price additional payroll services separately.
Do you support VAT registration and returns?
Yes. We can register you for VAT (e.g. standard or Flat Rate Scheme) and file quarterly VAT returns under MTD. VAT services are available as an add-on.
