We are aware of cheaper software that is available on the market purely that we know some of our customers already own these and we are not on any commission agreement with any software house, so contact us if you would like this no obligation information.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Do you file Tax returns?” tab_id=”1509025143340-e6fe9436-feb0″][vc_column_text]No, we do not have the software to perform this task as we specialise in IXBRL tagging.<\/p>\n

Now HMRC have changed their system so that many who filed for free online with their website now must buy tax software themselves or get an accountant to do it for them.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”What is iXBRL?” tab_id=”1509025192360-edd0ee8d-8ef1″][vc_column_text]This standards for Inline eXtensible Business Reporting Language<\/p>\n

HMRC give a list of every element within your company accounts that they are interested in. Each of these items in this list has an individual tag. For example, on the cover page of your accounts, your company number will need a tag, as will your company name. Almost every piece of information has a corresponding \u201ctag\u201d.<\/p>\n

These tags all in one computerised document allows a computer to read the tags and therefore your accounts without the need for a human to do it and allows for quicker examining and collation of financial information.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”When do I need to submit my return to Companies House and HMRC?” tab_id=”1509025214288-71ef8aeb-7cb8″][vc_column_text]Unless you have specialised circumstances the general submission requirements are:<\/p>\n

Companies House : 9 months after the end of the accounting period that the accounts cover<\/p>\n

HMRC: 12 months after the end of the accounting period that the accounts cover (But the date the bill is payable is still 9 months!)<\/p>\n

First year accounts are treated differently as the deadline is 21months after the incorporation date.<\/p>\n

If you are ever unsure check with Companies House or HMRC directly so you do not get fined.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Which accounts do I need to submit to Companies House, and which do I submit to HMRC?” tab_id=”1509460381547-b1ea5606-a451″][vc_column_text]For Companies House:<\/strong><\/p>\n
