Dividend tax rates
Please note that from 2022/23 tax year the personal dividend tax rate has increased to 8.75%, but you still receive the first £2,000 of dividends tax free.
2022 Self Assessment penalties
If any client has still not filed their 2021 personal tax return that should have been filed by 31/1/22 then there will be another £300 penalty or 5% of any tax due (whichever the greatest) on the 1st August 2022
If there is any 2021 tax still outstanding there will also be a 5% penalty on 1st August 2022
For any 2022 tax outstanding, please ensure your second payment on account for 21/22 is made or the balancing payment for 2022 is made (if your 2022 return is already completed) to save interest by the 1st August 2022. This does not have to be paid until 31/1/23 but payment sooner will save HMRC charging you interest
2022 Sole trader accounts
Can all our sole trader and partnership clients please submit their business records, via email, from 6/4/21-5/4/22 so we can begin work on your accounts and tax returns
You have until 31/1/23 to submit your tax returns to HMRC and pay any tax liability but the sooner they are completed the longer you have to plan for any tax liability.
PMC now takes card payments for fees-if you would rather pay fees by card than bank transfer please just call the office
