Year-End & Compliance FAQs

Do I need to do anything before my year-end?

Not much! We’ll let you know what records or information we need based on your business type. It’s great if you’ve kept things organised from the outset. If not, we’ll help you pull together what’s missing.

What’s included in “year-end accounts”?

This depends on your setup. For limited companies, it includes annual accounts, Corporation Tax returns, and Companies House filing. Sole traders and partnerships usually need an end-of-year income and expenses summary, and a self-assessment return.

I’ve left everything until the last minute: is it too late?

If your deadline is approaching, let us know right away. We’ll work with you to prioritise and make sure key filings are handled properly (even if we need to request an extension).

Can you help if I’ve had a fine or penalty?

Yes. If you’ve missed a deadline or received a penalty, we’ll look at your options, whether that’s appealing, negotiating, or getting everything back on track to avoid further issues.

I’m not confident my old accountant explained things properly - can you review past accounts?

We’re happy to take a look at previous filings and let you know if anything stands out or needs correcting going forward.

Do I need accounting software to use this service?

No. You can keep your records in a spreadsheet (or even on paper, if that’s where you’re at). We’ll handle the rest, including using compliant software to file everything properly with HMRC. If you ever want to switch to accounting software, we can help with that too but it’s not a requirement.

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.
