💻 Selling on eBay, Vinted, Etsy, Facebook Marketplace or other online platforms?

Many people don't realise that income earned through online selling may need to be declared to HMRC.

While selling unwanted personal items is often not taxable, regularly buying and selling goods for profit, offering services, or running an online side business could create a tax obligation.

Online platforms are now required to share seller information with HMRC, making it easier than ever for undeclared income to be identified.

If you're earning money online and aren't sure whether you need to register for Self Assessment or declare your income, it's better to get advice now than face unexpected penalties later.

📞 Our team can help you understand your obligations and ensure you're fully compliant.

Get in touch today for friendly, professional advice.

💍 Are You Missing Out on a Tax Saving?

If you're married or in a civil partnership, you could be eligible for the Marriage Allowance and save up to hundreds of pounds a year in tax.

The Marriage Allowance allows a lower-earning spouse or civil partner to transfer part of their Personal Allowance to their partner, potentially reducing the couple's overall tax bill.

Many eligible couples don't realise they can claim – and you may even be able to backdate your claim for previous tax years.

Not sure if you qualify? Our team is here to help you check your eligibility and make the process simple.

📞 Get in touch today and let's make sure you're not paying more tax than you need to.

🚗 Mileage Rate Update 🚗

The mileage rate has increased from 45p to 55p per mile.

If you use your own vehicle for business travel, this means you may be able to claim more towards your travel costs.

Not sure how this affects you or your business? Get in touch with our team and we'll be happy to help.

📢 Reminder for Employers 📢

The deadline for providing P60s to employees is approaching. Employers must ensure all staff receive their P60 by 31 May following the end of the tax year.

A P60 summarises an employee’s total pay and deductions for the tax year and is an important document for tax records, mortgage applications, and benefit claims.

If you haven’t already prepared yours, now is the time to get organised and make sure they’re issued on time ✅

Quick heads-up for anyone who pays tax via Payments on Account 👇

If your income has dropped this year, you could be overpaying in July - but only if you leave your tax return until the last minute.

Getting your tax return done early means you can apply to reduce your July payment on account based on your actual figures, not last year’s higher income. That can make a big difference to your cash flow 💸

Wait too long, and you risk paying more than you need to upfront.
