Tax Return Service FAQs

Do I definitely need an accountant to do my tax return?

Not necessarily, you can file it yourself. But working with an accountant means everything is accurate, deadlines are met, and you’re not left worrying you’ve missed something. We’ll also make sure you’re claiming all the allowances you’re entitled to.

What information do you need from me?

It depends on your business type, but usually it’s income and expense records, bank statements, and details of any other income. Don’t worry, we’ll give you a clear checklist so you know exactly what to provide.

Can you talk to HMRC on my behalf?

Yes. We can deal directly with HMRC for queries, letters, or follow-ups, so you don’t have to spend hours on hold or feel anxious about what to say.

Do you only handle self-assessment tax returns?

No, we support sole traders, limited company directors, and partnerships. We also manage corporation tax returns and can prepare director self-assessments alongside company filings.

Will you explain my tax return to me?

Definitely. Before we file, you’ll get a plain-English summary so you know exactly what’s included and why. No jargon, no confusion — just clarity.

Kind words from our clients

Starting up my own business I had no idea how much would be involved in preparing the tax at the end of the tax year and how much time bookkeeping would take. Fortunately Jana was at hand to help me. She guided me through all the steps needed for her to submit the documents to the tax office, answered all the questions I asked, and put me at ease. I would recommend brush up accounting to anyone that needed this service.

In less than 2 months, Jana has very efficiently organised me and has set me up with a whole new system to aid my efficiency. Moreover she has been really proactive in pointing out issues in my bookkeeping and most importantly, my invoice chasing. This has resulted in recovering monies that I had no idea I was missing! I thank Jana for her highly fastidious approach and care and I have no hesitation in recommending her to colleagues and friends.

Brush Up Accounting was recommended to me by a mutual friend and Jana has been like a breath of fresh air. I needed someone approachable, professional and experienced and I got all three. Jana was excellent at communicating with me and she has always got back to me within 24 hours (if not sooner). She has made an onerous task a lot simpler by explaining the process step by step. I highly recommend working with Brush Up Accounting.
