If you choose to take money out of the business in a way that isn’t accounted for by one of these options, then it will be recorded through a director’s loan account (DLA).

Essentially, you are borrowing money from your own company.

While this can be a simple way of accessing high levels of capital when you need it, there are tax implications which you’ll need to consider.

Failing to do so could result in major penalties, as in the recent case of HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) and David Kingsmill Plumpton, Director of Botleigh Grange Hotel, Southampton.

Although HMRC was forced to reduce the £90,000 penalty, Mr Plumpton still faced a £200,000 bill and £30,000 fine for improperly filling out Income Tax Self-Assessment (ITSA) when he received the funds.

So, how do you avoid getting in trouble with HMRC? Let’s investigate.

Income Tax

You generally don’t have to pay Income Tax on director’s loans as the tax liability sits with your business.

However, if the loan is ‘written off’ or ‘released’, i.e. it is not repaid, then you must report it via ITSA and pay Income Tax on the loan.

Your company must also deduct Class 1 National Insurance (NI) through its payroll.

Director’s loans as benefits in kind (BIKs)

If a director’s loan is £10,000 or over and free from interest, HMRC will consider it to be a benefit in kind (BIK) – a benefit which an employee or director receives which is not included in their salary, typically provided to the individual at low or no cost.

For a loan of this size, you will need to report it via ITSA.

Your company will also need to deduct Class 1 NI Contributions.

Corporation Tax

Some director’s loans create a Corporation Tax liability, reported to HMRC by form CT600A.

This occurs if a loan or advance has been made to the Director or shareholder from a close company.

A close company must be resident in the UK and controlled by either:

• Five or fewer participators (shareholders or any other person(s) who have shares or an interest in the company capital or income); or
• Any number of directors who are also shareholders.

Under Section 455 CTA 2010, a loan to a close company is subject to Corporation Tax. Therefore, the company, rather than the participator is liable for the tax on the loan.

You should try to repay the loan within nine months of the end of your business’ accounting period (AP) to avoid additional tax on the loan.

If you do this, then your company will pay Corporation Tax according to the following:

• A loan of more than £5,000 (and another loan of £5,000 or more was taken out up to 30 days before or after the original loan was repaid) – Corporation Tax is due at 33.75 per cent.
• If the loan was more than £15,000 (and another loan was arranged upon repayment) – Corporation Tax is due at 33.75 per cent.

If you don’t repay your loan within the given period, then your company will pay Corporation Tax on the outstanding amount at 33.75 per cent, as shown on the Company Tax Return.

After the loan is repaid, your company can reclaim Corporation Tax.

Exception to Section 455

An exception exists for directors and employees of the company or its associated companies when:

• The individual is employed full-time by the company or its associated companies;
• The loan or advance does not exceed £15,000; and
• The individual holds no material interest in the company (i.e. no more than five per cent of the ordinary share capital, or five per cent of the company’s assets).

Record-keeping and planning

Director’s loans come under the purview of financial management and compliance.

For this reason, you must keep detailed records of any money which you have withdrawn from the business or paid into it, as well as any tax you have paid and details of any written-off loans.

This can help you avoid non-compliance with tax regulations and support you if HMRC asks you for more information.

Establishing which category your property falls into can help you find out the specifics of your tax obligations.

What type of property do you own?

Defining if your property is a furnished residential let is simple.

If your residential property is either partially or fully furnished at the time that it was let out, then it is a furnished residential let.

However, defining your property as a FHL is more complex. For your property to be an FHL, it must be:

• Furnished sufficiently for normal occupation
• In the UK or European Economic Area (EEA)
• Let to make a profit
• Available for letting as an FHL at least 210 days out of the year
• Let commercially for at least 105 days a year
• Long-term lets over 31 continuous days don’t exceed 155 days of the year.

Whichever property type yours falls into, you must understand your tax obligations and available reliefs.

Furnished residential lets

There are limited tax reliefs available for furnished residential lets. Since 6 April 2020, Income Tax relief has been limited to the basic rate of Income Tax. They are also limited to the lowest mortgage interest, furnished let income, or your adjusted total income.

You may want to consider offering your property unfurnished, as there is no longer a ‘wear and tear allowance’ for landlords to deduct from their taxable earnings.

There is the ‘replacement of domestic items relief’, which allows you to claim certain items as expenses, as well as disposing of the old item.

Furnished Holiday Lets

Currently, FHL owners can enjoy significant tax benefits. However, the Furnished Holiday Let allowance is set to be abolished in April 2025, meaning that there will be fewer tax benefits for landlords.

Under the current regulations, FHL owners can benefit from:

• Claiming up to £1 million of capital expenditure under the Annual Investment Allowance (AIA)
• Costs such as mortgage interest are fully deductible from rental income, lowering your taxable income
• Business Asset Disposal Relief can replace GCT if their operations are classed as a business
• Earnings from FHLs are considered earned, so are eligible for relief at the owner’s highest rate of Income Tax.

Unfortunately, FHLs will likely come under the same rules as residential holiday lets from next year. This means that there will be less tax benefits to owning a FHL instead of a residential rental property.

Do you need to file a Self Assessment tax return?

If you’re unsure whether you need to file a return, checking as soon as possible is essential to ensure you are prepared for the filing deadline.

As outlined by HMRC, you must file a tax return for the 2023/24 tax year by 31 January 2025 if you met any of the following criteria:

• You earned more than £1,000 through being self-employed
• You were a partner in a business partnership
• Your taxable income was above £150,000
• Capital Gains Tax was due on the sale of an asset
• You paid the High Income Child Benefit Charge

There are other situations where you may need to file a tax return, such as if you are a landlord or earned any untaxed income during the tax year.

If you are required to submit a tax return for the first time, you must register for Self Assessment by 5 October 2024.

In the case you are filing a paper return, it’s important to note you must do this before 31 October 2024. You should prepare for the shift to Making Tax Digital for Income Tax Self Assessment (ITSA), which will be implemented from April 2026.

This forms part of the move to digitise the tax system, with sole traders and landlords earning above £50,000 being required to file their tax returns using MTD-compliant software from April 2026. This will extend to those earning above £30,000 from April 2027.

You may be able to voluntarily register for MTD for ITSA early – you can check if you are eligible here.

Why should you file early?

The first day of the tax year, 6 April, saw a substantial number of filings, with nearly 70,000 people submitting their returns.

Filing early offers numerous advantages. It allows more time to ensure your return is accurate and complete, potentially avoiding common errors associated with rushed submissions.

If you’d rather take the pressure off yourself, our tax team can prepare and file your tax return for you, providing the peace of mind that you are fulfilling your tax obligations on time.

Preparing your tax return early with the support of an accountant can also help with budgeting, by providing early insight into any tax owed or refunds due.

To aid in managing finances, HMRC offers the option to set up a budget payment plan, allowing taxpayers to make incremental payments towards their next tax bill through direct debits.

Refunds on overpaid tax are processed sooner for early filers, and the status of these can be checked using the HMRC app.

As the year progresses, taxpayers are encouraged to take advantage of these options, ensuring a smoother and more efficient tax filing experience.

If you would like assistance with filing your Self Assessments or require specific advice, please contact us today.

The post Follow the trend with a proactive tax return strategy appeared first on Grunberg & Co.

Those in this band do not automatically need to send a Self-Assessment tax return for the 2023/24 financial year if they meet the following criteria:

• They are taxed through Pay-As-You-Earn (PAYE)
• They submitted a 2022/23 tax return showing income within the stated band
• They have no other income
• They do not meet any other criteria for requiring Self-Assessment, such as being self-employed and earning over £1,000 from self-employment
• They do not pay the High Income Child Benefit Charge (HICBC)
• They are not a partner in a registered business partnership
• They do not receive any untaxed income over £2,500.

Net adjusted income refers to total taxable income before your Personal Allowance is applied, but after certain reliefs, such as charitable donations via Gift Aid.

Anyone earning between £100,000 and £150,000 annually who does not meet all these criteria will need to submit a Self-Assessment return for the previous financial year as normal.

If you need to send a return for the 2023/24 financial year, you must register by 5 October 2024 and submit it by 31 January 2025.

Are further changes coming?

2023/24 was a transition year towards completely removing the requirement for PAYE-only taxpayers to submit a Self-Assessment return.

In the most recent financial year, those earning over £150,000 per annum were still required to submit a return, despite paying tax through PAYE only.

For the 2024/25 financial year onward, this requirement has been removed entirely.

Those that need to submit a Self-Assessment return for 2023/24 should remember that the Personal Allowance decreases by £1 for every £2 that you earn over £100,000 – effectively removing the Personal Allowance for incomes of £125,140 or more.

As a part of the Government’s broader strategy, MTD for ITSA aims to boost the UK’s tax system into one of the world’s most technologically advanced frameworks.

Currently, the focus is on individuals and unincorporated entities such as sole traders and partnerships. However, the Government plans to extend a similar MTD framework to limited companies and Corporation Tax in the future.

If your property portfolio and operations are incorporated as a limited company, it is important to start preparing for this upcoming requirement.

The system requires the use of digital software to manage records and send updates to HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) for Income Tax. This includes providing an end-of-period statement and a final declaration annually.

From 6 April 2026 (or 6 April 2027, depending on your level of income), you will need to implement MTD for ITSA if you meet the following eligibility criteria:

• You are registered for Self-Assessment.
• You are not exempt.
• Your total qualifying income is above £50,000 (or £30,000 post-April 2027).
• Your income comes from self-employment, property or both.

From the above, you can see that this requirement varies based on your total qualifying income, including earnings from property.

If you are a landlord, MTD for ITSA introduces significant implications, particularly for those who pay Income Tax through employment and must also declare additional income via ITSA.

This dual reporting obligation increases the complexity of managing your tax affairs, requiring diligent record-keeping and periodic updates to HMRC.

Consulting with an accountant can provide expert guidance and ensure that your tax records and submissions are accurate and compliant with current regulations.

Additionally, an accountant can offer strategic advice on managing your tax liabilities and identifying potential deductions more effectively.

The challenges presented by MTD for ITSA

Landlords will encounter multiple challenges as they adapt to MTD for ITSA.

The shift from paper-based or basic digital records to a fully digital, MTD-compliant software system is significant.

Managing this transaction, along with the usual demands of property management, could significantly increase your workload.

You must familiarise yourself with new systems and processes and may incur hidden expenses, such as system upgrades, investments in compliant software, and potentially, new technology acquisitions.

These investments, both in time and finances, amplify the existing challenges faced by landlords.

How can cloud accounting make MTD for ITSA easier?

For our landlord clients who are concerned about the complexities of MTD for ITSA, we suggest utilising cloud accounting solutions. Here are some key benefits of using cloud accounting software:

• Compliance with MTD requirements: Allows you to maintain digital records and manage transactions online, ensuring compliance with MTD mandates.
• Access to real-time data: Provides immediate access to up-to-date financial data, crucial for making accurate and timely submissions under MTD for ITSA.
• Scalability: Adapts to changes in your portfolio size or diversity, requiring only an initial investment in technology and avoiding repeated costs.
• Error reduction: Enhances accuracy by reducing the likelihood of errors, helping to streamline the management of financial records.
• Effective financial management: Offers tools that help you manage your finances more efficiently and in real-time, facilitating better decision-making.

If you need recommendations on cloud-accounting software, please get in touch with our team today.

The post Simplifying MTD for ITSA for landlords appeared first on Grunberg & Co.

We entered the 2024/25 fiscal year on 6 April and now is the perfect opportunity to take advantage of the allowances, reliefs, and exemptions that your business can claim within the next 12 months.

“These can give you a distinct tax advantage over your competitors and reduce your overall expenses significantly,” says Nimesh Patel, Tax Partner.

“The best way to manage and apply for these is through your accountant and tax adviser – we can streamline the process considerably and guide you on which ones to apply for and when.”

However, if you are yet to engage an accountant, here are some of the many options we’ll be advising clients on this year.

The VAT registration threshold has increased

The threshold for VAT registration has risen from £85,000 to £90,000 from 1 April 2024, as part of the Chancellor’s attempt to support small businesses in the Spring Budget.

“This change will simplify your tax compliance and may mean that you can defer your VAT registration,” says Nimesh Patel, Tax Partner.

“You may need to reassess your growth strategies in light of the new threshold and strategically plan for when you register for VAT as a result.”

Registering for VAT before your turnover reaches the threshold can allow you to reclaim VAT on your business expenses, enhancing your cash flow and presenting your business as more established to potential clients and suppliers.

Business investment advice

The Annual Investment Allowance, which remains at £1 million this year, enables you to immediately deduct the cost of assets from your profits.

Full expensing also allows you to fully deduct the cost of qualifying new plant and machinery from your taxable profits in the year you make the investment. Until 31 March 2026, you can take advantage of this to significantly reduce your taxable income and tax bill by writing off 100 per cent of these investments immediately.

“This is especially valuable if you’re investing in plant machinery, as it allows for a full deduction in the year of purchase, effectively reducing your taxable profit.”

Additionally, “it encourages you to accelerate your investment plans, promoting growth and innovation within your business,” says Nimesh Patel, Tax Partner.

Equally, R&D tax relief can help you promote innovation, reducing your taxable profits, but it is important to be aware of the merged schemes that are now in place.

The combined scheme of R&D Expenditure Credit (RDEC) and Enhanced R&D Intensive Support (ERIS) supersedes the previous RDEC and Small and Medium-Sized Enterprise (SME) schemes.

Under this merged regime, companies, regardless of size, will receive an above-the-line credit, except for R&D-intensive SMEs​, which will qualify for an enhanced rate.

The merged scheme has reduced the R&D intensity threshold from 40 per cent to 30 per cent for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 April 2024.

This makes it easier for more SMEs to qualify for enhanced support if their R&D expenditure constitutes at least 30 per cent of their total expenditure.

Moreover, a one-year grace period is available for companies that fail to meet the 30% intensity threshold but have done so in the previous year, allowing them to continue claiming enhanced support​​.

Similarly, looking into the future, investments in digital and green technologies may offer future tax benefits and allow you to claim Enhanced Capital Allowances against your profits.

A note on salaries, bonuses, and dividends

“Balancing remuneration types can significantly reduce your tax burdens, with the NIC reduction from 6 April affecting optimal salary and dividend structuring,” says Nimesh Patel, Tax Partner.

As with all other forms of remuneration, it’s best to discuss this with your accountant or payroll specialist before you proceed.

Compliance considerations this tax year

The Making Tax Digital (MTD) scheme means that, from April 2026, all unincorporated businesses will need to submit digital records and quarterly submissions when their income exceeds £50,000.

However, we are advising that our clients prepare for this change early and employ MTD-compliant software before the deadline date and before they reach the £50,000 threshold.

The Spring Budget also brought in added compliance considerations through the “basis period reform.”

Nimesh Patel, Tax Partner says; “Basis period reform will also align unincorporated business’s income assessment with the tax year and increase your need for comprehensive reporting and documentation procedures.

“In 2024/25, properly transitioning and understanding these new compliance requirements is going to be crucial for businesses.”

Is this the year for incorporation?

“Incorporating – becoming a limited company – can lead to lower Corporation Tax rates and flexible tax planning and many of our clients are now considering this as a tax mitigation strategy.

“This is a great way for sole traders and partners to reduce their Income Tax liabilities by paying Corporation Tax instead,” says Nimesh Patel, Tax Partner.

Incorporated companies with profits of up to £50,000 pay a Corporation Tax rate of 19 per cent, while those with profits over £250,000 face a higher rate of 25 per cent.

Profits falling between these amounts enter a tapered rate system, where marginal relief applies, effectively creating a gradual increase in the tax rate from 19 per cent to 25 per cent as profits rise.

“This tiered system makes it crucial for you to manage your profitability to optimise your tax liabilities.”

Don’t forget that managing dividends and salaries within a limited company also further optimises your tax liabilities.

Speaking to your accountant

The best way to reduce your expenses this tax year, and remain compliant throughout, is to speak to your accountant at the earliest opportunity.

We can help you reduce your tax liabilities and plan efficiently for the year ahead.

Please get in touch for more information or tailored guidance based on your business’s unique circumstances.

The substantial policy change affects how taxpayers learn about repayments.

Starting from 8 April, HMRC will cease issuing letters to individuals or their agents to announce a repayment for Corporation Tax or Income Tax Self-Assessment (ITSA).

Repayments will proceed as usual and will appear on the HMRC online services accessible to both agents and taxpayers.

There is no extra action required to secure these repayments.

HMRC explains that the move to discontinue confirmation letters comes in response to the confusion caused by letters arriving post-repayment, leading to a surge in enquiries for clarification from taxpayers.

How will I be affected?

You, as a taxpayer, will now need to pay closer attention to your online account with HMRC.

It is crucial to become acquainted with the HMRC online services, paying particular detail to the sections where tax repayment information will appear.

If you manage your tax affairs through an agent, it is vital that your agent checks their account frequently and updates you on any tax repayment communications.

Furthermore, stay vigilant for any letters about tax repayments in the future, as they could be scams.

HMRC and its taxpayers are often the targets of fraudulent schemes, especially when there’s a notable change (such as the discontinuation of a standard HMRC letter).

It is important you are wary of potential fraudulent letters – these might feature:

• An incorrect department address
• An invalid phone number or email address
• Incorrect personal information

If you still receive letters from HMRC about repayments and suspect fraud, it is important to report them to the department.

Keeping informed about HMRC’s communication methods is crucial to help identify and report any fraudulent letters and information.

As the theme of Stress Awareness Month is ‘Little by Little, a Little becomes a Lot’, we’re encouraging everyone to adopt this mindset and make small changes to reduce their personal tax-related stress. 

Planning ahead 

“Fail to prepare, prepare to fail.”  

Just as the saying goes, it’s wise to plan well in advance of the financial year ending, or you could full victim to rushing your tasks before April 2025 and likely missing crucial details.  

Avoid getting caught out by the new changes announced in the Spring Budget and ensure you’re aware of your responsibilities.  

For example, if you are self-employed, you need to be aware of and understand the reduction in Class 4 NICs from nine per cent to six per cent. 

Taking small but helpful steps 

We’ve identified a few useful steps that will guide you towards a worry-free and uniformed process.   

• Check in with your accountant – It’s best to have your accountant advise you sooner rather than later to ensure compliance 
• Don’t forget your expenses – Remember to claim all expenses that you’re owed. If you’re not sure what you’re entitled to, our team can guide you 
• Check your account – Review your figures regularly to ensure that they’re correct and conform to any tax obligations 
• Try to avoid mistakes – Naturally, human error occurs from time to time. However, avoiding inaccuracies is one thing to ensure less stress in the future 

By seeking advice early, our tax experts can help take this pressure off. 

Taking advantage of allowances  

Personal tax allowances could help you reduce the amount of Income Tax you pay.  

Some allowances can reduce the amount of income that you have to pay tax on whilst others provide an amount that you can set against your tax liability to reduce the amount of Income Tax you pay. 

The UK tax allowances that you might be eligible for include: 

• Personal allowance (main allowance) 
• Marriage allowance 
• Married couple’s allowance 
• Tax relief for maintenance payments 

These allowances are transferable, either completely or partially: 

• Marriage allowance 
• Blind person’s allowance  
• Married couple’s allowance 

To keep your finances in order as much as possible, it’s crucial to understand what allowances you’re eligible for.  

By taking small but important the steps, you will be able to move closer to a relaxed and stress-free tax year.  

If the pressure becomes too much, don’t panic!

It is important consider your pension contributions, salary sacrifices and Capital Gains Tax allowances for you to receive the right benefits for you.

There are range of tax-free allowances you should consider using before the end of the tax year on 5 April and this is detailed below.

Personal allowance and dividends

The first £12,570 of your income is covered by your personal allowance and is received tax-free unless your total income exceeds £100,000.

An additional £1,000 of dividend income is covered by dividend allowance (if not already covered by the personal allowance).

This means there is no tax to pay.

If you are a basic rate or higher rate taxpayer, you can also benefit from the personal savings allowance.

This means the first £1,000/£500 (respectively) of interest is free from tax.

Capital Gains Tax

It is important to consider and use the Capital Gains Tax (CGT) annual exempt amount.

This will mean you could receive up to £6,000 of capital gains completely tax-free.

You could potentially use this to further re-invest the gains.

You do need to know that, from April 2024, the amount will reduce to £3,000 per annum and, if you do not already do tax returns, you will need to if your gains exceed £3,000 in future years.

ISAs

Using an ISA would mean you automatically get zero interest on up to £20,000 worth of interest.

These are a great way of making investments as they allow you to make full use of the annual limits for contributions to your ISAs.

Any growth, income, and gains within these are again completely tax-free.

The annual maximum amount for an adult, that can be saved in ISAs, is £20,000 in a combination of ways through stocks, shares, innovative finance, or cash.

If you have children, they can have a junior ISA with a maximum of £9,000, up to the age of 18.

Pensions

There is sometimes confusion surrounding the rules of pensions but, when properly understood, they can be another way to reduce your tax liability.

You can use up your personal allowance for pension contributions – the amount you put in which largely depend on the amount of your income for the year, what the income is, and what unused allowances you have from the three prior tax years.

At a minimum, you can make pension contributions of up to £3,600 (gross) in the year and an annual allowance of up to £60,000.

Contributions to your personal pension will also reduce your adjusted net income thus there might be benefits if your income is between £100,000 and £125,140.

This applies where the personal allowance is reduced or for those with income between £50,000 and £60,000 who are subject to the High Income Child Benefit Charge (HICBC).

Always remember to take care with your pension contributions so as not to exceed the annual allowance.

It is crucial to maximise your tax allowances whilst they are still around.
