"I hate self assessment... it's supposed to be relatively straight forward to do.... but it's not! Why do they make these things so complicated for us to do and then make it hard to get help.. " Totally agree, did and paid mine on the 9th December, got an Email today saying thumb screws were ready if I didnt pay... checked and £20 was unpaid from last year which wasnt added to this years final balance so was of course not paid... So I paid it by debit card. Logged back in this afternoon just to see a 0 balance... And it still shows £20 unpaid! Shifted £40,000 over the bank holiday weekend bank to bank, 9am on 2nd January it was completed, and all balances updated. So how come the tax office computer can't show payments made instantly!!! Bloody system is a nightmare! Rant done... But if I vanish on 1st Feb, you know who has taken me... | |||

"If you’re new to self assessment then you have my sympathies pal, however... I find it very simple and straightforward myself. Have been doing it online for around 8 years and before that on paper since the age of 17. It’s usually peoples poor bookkeeping and accounting that causes problems. Make time every week to keep your records straight and up to date and then come self assessment time it’s a doddle. When I first started I went to the citizens advice and a very stern but helpful lady showed me how important it is to keep accurate weekly records of everything tax/income/expenses related, perhaps you could pay them a visit. Good luck with it " Sam, how stern was she? | |||

"When I was self employed I paid a accountant about £25 a week (which was tax deductible also) and also vat registered which which actually covered the cost of the accountant fees. When it did get to a point where I became a PAYE employee and had a huge tax bill to pay from when I was self employed (£2956) my accountant desolved the 'company' and the debt. " ^^^^ This is my situation... (although my 'huge bill' is much more, erm, "huge" Currently looking it legislation regarding Liquidation of Ltd Co and Director liabilities..... not much fun | |||

It's not "tax dodging" it's easy to get into trouble plus iam sure we have all spent thousands and thousands paying taxes already | |||

"I meant to add that if you have a high turn over it's so important to have an accountant.....one that knows what they're doing. The people I know might have to sell their family home!! Stress no one needs." It is important to have an accountant, BUT you need to know the numbers to the nearest 10,000 or so. That way you can ensure your accountant is not to far out, cos the tax man doesn't chase the accountant. I am happy to pay taxes, but I have 3 income streams which sometimes get complex, and I worry that 70% or more of what I am paying is gone in the cost of collecting. | |||

You really don’t need a tax advisor unless it’s very complex, just a bog standard accountant/bookkeeper will do and probably only charge less than £300! Oh and why would they make it too easy, some of us paid a fortune and studied for years to do the job | |||

"What plusses me off is I am stressing over an unpaid £20, that they are chasing when I gave them just short of £30,000 a month ago, and roughly the same last year, though that was apparently £20 short... bet I get fined £100 then spend weeks arguing with a dozen tax officers that I already paid the £20 Today." Ok seriously if you are earning or capable of earning or turning over enough to pay over 30 000 in tax then you are rich enough to pay for serious advice or clever enough to work it out yourself The maths isn't difficult We turn over over 2 million and I don't pay over 300000 in vat or tax If it was 30 000 as company or personal tax that means you took home over 100 000 Vat wise it means a net take of 150 thousand after input has been subtracted I smell some bull shite | |||

If someone has a heart attack, would you phone an ambulance? You see, without taxes, none of those services will be there... | |||

"I smell some bull shite " I have been very lucky, have property paid for earning rent, have skills that are well priced with very low overhead and a well paid hobby. My turn over is nowhere near 2million, but I don't have much in the way of costs. It's not about the money, it's the cost of the process. Paid the outstanding £20 and its no big deal as I am not working for a few weeks, but the arguing over small change especially when several people are involved, often costs more than the debt. Which is what annoys me. | |||

"Lot of cowards on here send a message on ya to thread block ya straight away so ya cant reply nowt but penpushers x" Don't know what your definition of pen pusher is, so can't tell if I am one, but as your salary when you were in the forces was paid from tax, who do you think should be paying the guy who took over your bunk? | |||

No your op was suggesting self assessment was difficult , no it isn't and certainly not if you have the earnings to be charged 30 000 in tax , hope hope they fine you for wasting their precious time I always over pay by at least 500 as then they pay ME interest above bank rate You are earning outstanding money you sound like a London banker whinging that the food banks won't give them free food Take fucking responsibility for yourself and your finances not try to blame the system for your failings | |||

How can I use their system, pay them the money and it doesn't show the payment made? Every business with online transactions handle this with ease, but not the tax man... It will lead to a too and fro that will cost hundreds in my time and theirs, and I did over pay that year and received a refund before they decided I was £20 short. Then the system failed to add it to the payment requested in December when I put my self assessment in, which caused someone to email me threats today. P.S. I am not the OP on this thread. | |||
