Commonly Asked Questions
Quick answers to common questions about using a tax accountant in Coventry.
How do I know if I am required to file a Self Assessment tax return, even if I’m employed?
HMRC does not base Self Assessment obligations on whether you are employed or self-employed; it is based entirely on whether all your income has been taxed correctly at source. Many Coventry taxpayers wrongly assume that being on PAYE removes the need for a tax return. In reality, HMRC requires a Self Assessment if you receive any additional untaxed or under-taxed income.
This includes self-employment income over £1,000, rental income, dividends above the allowance, capital gains, foreign income, benefits in kind, or liability for the High Income Child Benefit Charge. Even modest side income can trigger a legal obligation to register.
HMRC expects you to notify them by 5 October following the end of the tax year in which the obligation arose. Missing this step can lead to “failure to notify” penalties, even if you later file and pay tax.
A professional review ensures that obligations are identified correctly and early. This matters because HMRC penalties are based on what you should have done, not what you believed applied to you.
What exactly causes HMRC Self Assessment penalties, even when no tax is owed?
HMRC penalties are primarily procedural, not financial. This is a critical point many taxpayers misunderstand. Penalties arise when you fail to register, file, or pay on time, regardless of whether the final tax liability is nil.
For example, filing your return one day late automatically triggers a £100 penalty. Continued delays result in daily penalties, followed by percentage-based penalties at six and twelve months. HMRC applies these penalties even when no tax is owed because the legal obligation is to submit a correct return by the deadline.
Another common trigger is inaccuracy penalties, which arise when HMRC considers errors to be careless or deliberate. These often stem from incorrect expense claims, missing income streams, or misunderstanding allowances.
Professional Self Assessment preparation focuses on process compliance, not just calculations. Deadlines, registration requirements, and record-keeping standards are all handled correctly, reducing avoidable penalties and protecting you from unnecessary HMRC enforcement action.
Can HMRC challenge or reject my Self Assessment tax return after I’ve submitted it online?
Yes. Submitting a Self Assessment tax return online does not mean HMRC has “approved” it. Online submission simply confirms that HMRC has received the return. After submission, HMRC applies automated risk profiling and compliance checks, sometimes months or years later.
Returns are commonly challenged where expense ratios appear unusually high, rental income figures don’t align with third-party data, or income sources are misclassified. HMRC can open a compliance check and request evidence, explanations, or corrections.
If HMRC believes the return is incorrect, they can amend it, raise additional tax assessments, charge penalties, and apply interest. Importantly, HMRC does not accept “I used software” as a defence — legal responsibility always remains with the taxpayer.
Professional preparation focuses on defensibility, ensuring figures are reasonable, correctly categorised, and supported by records. This significantly reduces the likelihood of post-submission challenges and puts you in a strong position if HMRC does raise queries.
Can I still file overdue Self Assessment tax returns online with HMRC?
Only in limited and specific circumstances. HMRC allows online filing only up to the statutory online deadline for each tax year, which is usually 31 January following the end of that tax year. Once that deadline passes, HMRC’s standard online system will no longer accept that year’s return.
For older overdue years, the return must be prepared and submitted using alternative HMRC-approved methods, which may involve paper submissions or agent-managed processes. Attempting to submit ineligible years online can lead to rejection, delays, and increased HMRC scrutiny.
This is frequently misunderstood online, and incorrect handling often worsens the situation. Each tax year must be assessed individually to determine the correct submission route.
Professional handling ensures that overdue returns are submitted using methods HMRC will accept, while also addressing penalties, estimated assessments, and possible mitigation where appropriate.
How far back can HMRC investigate or reopen my Self Assessment tax returns?
HMRC’s investigation powers depend on behaviour. If HMRC believes errors were careless, they can go back up to six years. If they believe errors were deliberate, they can investigate up to twenty years.
This means mistakes made today can create exposure long into the future, particularly in areas HMRC considers high-risk, such as rental income, expense claims, and undeclared secondary income.
Accuracy is therefore not just about the current year — it’s about long-term compliance. A professionally prepared return reduces future exposure by ensuring that figures align with HMRC guidance applicable at the time of submission and that claims can be supported if reviewed years later.
This long-term perspective is one of the most overlooked aspects of Self Assessment.
What business expenses does HMRC actually allow, and why do so many claims fail?
HMRC allows expenses that are wholly and exclusively incurred for business purposes. Claims often fail because taxpayers include mixed personal and business costs, misclassify capital expenses as day-to-day costs, or claim flat-rate amounts without justification.
Common problem areas include home-office expenses, vehicle costs, repairs versus improvements, and subsistence claims. HMRC does not accept estimates unless a recognised simplified method is used, and even then, eligibility rules apply.
Professional review ensures expenses are:
- Eligible under HMRC rules
- Correctly categorised
- Proportionate and justifiable
- Supported by records
This significantly reduces the risk of disputes, disallowed claims, and penalties following an HMRC review.
Why are landlords more likely to face HMRC checks on Self Assessment tax returns?
Property income is one of HMRC’s most scrutinised areas because errors are common and third-party data is widely available. HMRC frequently reviews returns involving rental income, especially where mortgage interest relief, repairs, or joint ownership is involved.
Landlords often make mistakes by incorrectly treating improvements as repairs, misunderstanding interest relief restrictions, or splitting income incorrectly between owners. These errors can result in underpaid tax and retrospective adjustments.
Specialist landlord Self Assessment preparation ensures compliance while applying all allowable reliefs correctly. This is essential not only to reduce tax legally but also to minimise HMRC attention.
If I use Self Assessment software or AI tools, who is responsible if HMRC challenges the return?
Legally, you are always responsible. HMRC holds the taxpayer accountable for all figures submitted, regardless of whether software, AI, or third parties prepared the return.
Software tools calculate numbers but do not apply professional judgement or accept responsibility for errors. If HMRC raises queries or penalties, the taxpayer must respond and justify the figures.
Using a professional accountant provides accountability, expertise, and support. Returns are prepared with documented reasoning, and you receive guidance if HMRC raises questions. This distinction is crucial once income becomes more complex.
What happens after I submit my Self Assessment tax return to HMRC?
After submission, HMRC may accept the return without contact or raise a compliance query. Acceptance does not mean the figures are permanently approved — HMRC can review returns within statutory limits.
You must also pay any tax due by the deadline, including payments on account if applicable. Late payment results in interest and penalties, even if the return itself was filed on time.
Professional services include post-submission support, which is essential if HMRC contacts you later. This ongoing support reduces stress and ensures responses are accurate and timely.
When does it make sense to stop filing my own Self Assessment and use an accountant?
The decision is not about income level — it’s about risk, complexity, and exposure. Once you have multiple income streams, rental property, late filings, or uncertainty around HMRC rules, professional preparation becomes a protective measure.
The cost of an accountant is often lower than the cost of overpaid tax, penalties, or time spent correcting errors. This is why many Coventry taxpayers move to accountant-led Self Assessment once their affairs are no longer straightforward.
