Question 1

Do you work with UK accounting practices?

Accepted Answer

Yes — UK practices are one of our core client groups. We work inside your Xero, QuickBooks or Sage files, to your standards, and can deliver white-label under your practice's name. Your team reviews and signs off.

Question 2

Are you set up for Making Tax Digital?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Bookkeeping is kept in digital records and VAT returns are submitted through MTD-compatible software. We also support clients moving onto MTD for Income Tax.

Question 3

Which UK returns can you prepare?

Accepted Answer

VAT returns, CT600 Corporation Tax returns with iXBRL-tagged accounts, SA100 self-assessment and partnership returns, RTI payroll submissions and monthly CIS returns.

Question 4

Can you help us through the January self-assessment peak?

Accepted Answer

That is what our seasonal tax support model is for — extra preparation capacity from the autumn, scaled back once the deadline has passed.

Question 5

Who submits returns to HMRC?

Accepted Answer

For practices, we prepare and you review and submit under your own agent credentials. For businesses we work with directly, the approval and submission arrangement is agreed at onboarding.

Question 6

Where is the work done?

Accepted Answer

Client conversations are handled through our UK office in Luton; preparation is carried out by our delivery team in Ahmedabad, India, which is what makes overnight turnaround possible.

Question 7

How do you keep client data secure?

Accepted Answer

We work inside your own cloud accounting systems rather than copying data out, access is granted per person, and you can review or revoke it at any time.

Question 8

What does it cost?

Accepted Answer

It depends on scope and volume, and on the engagement model you choose — which is why the first conversation is a free consultation.

Question 9

Are your VAT submissions MTD-compliant?

Accepted Answer

Yes. VAT returns are prepared from digital records and submitted through MTD-compatible software — the same Xero, QuickBooks or Sage file the records live in.

Question 10

Can you take over books that are behind?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We bring the ledger up to date period by period and reconcile it before the next VAT return is due, so the catch-up and the compliance deadline are handled together.

Question 11

Who submits the VAT return to HMRC?

Accepted Answer

That is agreed at onboarding. Practices usually review and submit under their own agent credentials; for businesses we work with directly, we agree the approval and submission arrangement with you first.

Question 12

Do you prepare iXBRL-tagged accounts?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Accounts and tax computations are tagged in iXBRL as part of preparing the CT600, so the return is ready to file once approved.

Question 13

What do you need from us?

Accepted Answer

Usually the trial balance or access to the bookkeeping file, the prior-year accounts, and year-end information such as fixed asset additions, loans and director transactions. We send a checklist at the start of each job.

Question 14

Who files with Companies House and HMRC?

Accepted Answer

We prepare everything in the required format. Filing is agreed per engagement — most practices file under their own credentials after review.

Question 15

When should we start sending returns?

Accepted Answer

As early as you can — we can begin as soon as a client's records for the tax year are in. Starting in the autumn is what keeps January manageable.

Question 16

Do you handle partnership and property income?

Accepted Answer

Yes — partnership returns, rental income schedules and capital gains calculations are all part of this service.

Question 17

Can you help with HMRC enquiries?

Accepted Answer

We draft replies to HMRC correspondence for your review. Representation itself stays with the practice or the taxpayer's appointed agent.

Question 18

Do you make the RTI submissions?

Accepted Answer

Yes — the Full Payment Submission is made for each pay run once the payroll has been approved.

Question 19

Can you help with pension auto-enrolment?

Accepted Answer

We support the ongoing duties — assessing staff, calculating contributions and preparing the data for your pension provider.

Question 20

Do you prepare CIS returns?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Monthly CIS returns are prepared for contractors, along with deduction statements for subcontractors.
