Are you unsure about what income is taxable? Many people think all income is subject to Income Tax, but that's not the case.

Income Tax applies to earnings from employment, profits from self-employment, certain state benefits, and more. However, you don’t pay tax on all types of income, like the first £1,000 from self-employment or specific state benefits.

Ignoring these details can lead to overpaying tax or missing out on potential refunds.

Here’s how Barter Durgan can assist you:

- Clarify what types of income are taxable
- Help you understand your allowances and reliefs
- Guide you through the Self Assessment process if needed
- Ensure you are paying the correct amount of tax
