Getting self assessment under control with these four steps from 1tap<\/strong><\/h2>\n

This article is sponsored by 1tap<\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n

If you are a self employed performer submitting a yearly self-assessment tax return, my guess is you are hitting the frenzy stage. With just a few days left until the self assessment deadline on the 31st Jan, you might have a huge pile of muddled receipts, paperwork and agent\u2019s statements. Or else perhaps you\u2019re reading this when the deadline has passed, you are sitting dazed and punch-drunk thinking: I\u2019m never going to let that happen again!<\/p>\n

The problem is, like many well intentioned New Year Resolutions, you know that you will likely end up in exactly the same position next year. Unless you change the way you approach your financial and tax affairs. End the worrying and stressing over your return and scrabbling to submit to pay your tax at the last minute!<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve come up with four simple steps to help you change both your mindset and your habits and lead you along the path to self-assessment enlightenment! Here we go:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Step 1: Don\u2019t leave it until the last minute<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Sounds like an unhelpful case of stating the pretty darn obvious, right? But it is actually the fundamental starting point for banishing your tax woes. Just remember: January the 31st is the absolute last chance saloon! Human nature means that we tend to leave the horrible or boring stuff until we can\u2019t leave it any longer and it would be fair to say that self-assessment, is both horrible and boring for the majority of people. By leaving it until the last minute, not only do you have Christmas and New Year to contend with (an officially stressful time of year), it is also a busy time for the new work year. So why add another big source of stress into the mix?!<\/p>\n

The fact of the matter is that assuming your accounting period is April to April, in January 2019 you\u2019ll be reporting on your business activity for the 6th of April 2017 up until the 5th of April 2018. This means if you get yourself up to date and organised, you are actually able to submit your self assessment from the 7th of April! Imagine that, nine months of stress free luxury ahead of you. But is that realistic? Well, with all the best will in the world, probably not immediately (especially if you\u2019ve got a lot of catching up to do) – but you can be in a position to submit it by the end of summer.<\/p>\n

Step 2: Get up to date<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Between the 31st of Jan 2018 and the 5th April 2018 you have two solid months to catch up and get everything straight. Let\u2019s do this! We\u2019re not talking about filling out your self-assessment yet. Just start by pulling together the receipts you have strewn around the house, car and everywhere in between, alongside your income records (agent statements, payslips for employed work, invoices you\u2019ve sent for self employed work, etc). This is something you end up doing at some point anyway – let\u2019s get it out of the way now!<\/p>\n

If you set yourself a goal of getting all your income and expenses up to date by the end of February, you can move to the next step.<\/p>\n

Step 3: Record as you go<\/strong><\/h3>\n

It\u2019s the 1st of March and let\u2019s assume you\u2019ve managed to get yourself up to date (well done!). You\u2019ve actually done the hardest part now and it\u2019s time to focus on\u00a0keeping<\/em>\u00a0up to date – and that means recording as you go.<\/p>\n

There are many, many benefits of recording your income and expenses as you go. It\u2019s a fact that 4 out of 5 self-employed people don\u2019t claim all the expenses they are entitled to. The two main reasons for this are lost or damaged receipts and not knowing what you can claim for.<\/p>\n

The app\u00a01tap receipts<\/a>\u00a0allows you to photograph your receipts regularly (ideally daily or weekly), so that you not only guard against losing them, but they are also automatically categorised for you in the 9 recognised HMRC categories. If you also record all your self-employed income in\u00a01tap tax<\/a>\u00a0as you are paid (this time, weekly or monthly is ideal) you\u2019ll have a clear overview of your potential tax calculation at all times! It\u2019s all safely stored and available to view in the app. You can either download a comprehensive spreadsheet or just enter your totals into HMRC directly.<\/p>\n

The real trick is to get into the habit of recording as you go. It might be a bit alien at first, but once you get into that habit it becomes second nature. It\u2019ll also set you up for the changes to the tax system in the next few years – when everyone will be completing\u00a0quarterly<\/strong>\u00a0returns for HMRC (see\u00a0Making Tax Digital<\/a>\u00a0for more info).<\/p>\n

Step 4: Tackle your self assessment in bits<\/strong><\/h3>\n

We\u2019re now up to date and recording income and expenses as we go. It\u2019s summertime and self-assessment is not taking priority in our minds over ice creams and swimming pools\u2026. But let\u2019s finish this!<\/p>\n

First thing\u2019s first: the online self assessment process is now much \u2018smarter\u2019 – no more paper forms to fill in or manual calculations to make if you file online. Also, If your turnover is under \u00a382,000 for the tax year you are filing for (which, let’s face it, accounts for\u00a0the vast majority of the UK\u2019s self-employed performers!), you are able to submit your self assessment return using the shortened method. Filing online means that instead of having to enter \u201cN\/A\u201d in boxes that aren\u2019t relevant to you, you\u2019re only presented with the boxes you need to complete, based on your previous answers – and this does the calculations for you!<\/p>\n

Even though the return process is potentially much shorter and less painful than in the past, many people procrastinate about doing their return using the excuse that they need to set aside a block of time. In actual fact, you are able to fill out part of your return and save your progress when filing online. So if it makes self assessment mentally more manageable for you, try doing it in small sections.<\/p>\n

If you have taken paid employment in a tax year, you may need to wait for a P60 from your employer\/s detailing the wages you\u2019ve been paid as well. But otherwise, save as you go!<\/p>\n

Encore!<\/strong><\/h3>\n

That\u2019s it! You\u2019re done! Give yourself a round of applause – your self assessment is filed with at least five months to spare. Which means that you now have time to save up any tax that you owe. You can still pay it at the last minute – we won\u2019t argue with you on that!<\/p>\n

So, in the style of a catchy government public information campaign, remember these points:<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t Wait – Up to date – Record and Tackle!<\/p>\n

That\u2019s all folks!<\/p>\n
