If you have invested in, traded, or received cryptocurrency in the last tax year, you may have a tax obligation, and HMRC now has the tools to know about it.

HMRC receives data directly from UK crypto exchanges. Undeclared gains are increasingly being identified and investigated.

Here is what triggers a UK tax liability:
Capital Gains Tax:
✔ Selling crypto for a profit
✔ Swapping one coin for another
✔ Using crypto to buy goods or services

Income Tax:
✔ Receiving crypto as payment for work
✔ Mining or staking rewards
✔ Certain airdrops

Inheritance Tax also applies, crypto is treated similarly to property for estate planning purposes.

At Gluck Accountants, we help crypto investors understand their obligations, calculate their gains accurately, and report correctly to HMRC.

If you work from home, whether as a sole trader, freelancer, or limited company director, there are costs you can claim against your tax bill. Most people either don't claim at all, or claim the wrong things.

For self-employed individuals, you can claim a proportion of:
✔ Heating and electricity
✔ Broadband and phone costs
✔ Rent or mortgage interest
✔ Council tax

For limited company directors, the rules are different. Your company can pay you a home working allowance of £6 per week without needing receipts, or reimburse actual additional costs with proper evidence.

The right approach depends on your business structure. Getting it wrong means either missed tax relief or an unwanted conversation with HMRC.

Missing an HMRC deadline isn't just stressful, it's expensive.

Penalties start from day one and interest compounds quickly. Whether it's Self Assessment, Corporation Tax, or VAT, HMRC doesn't wait.

What happens when you're late:
⚠️ £100 automatic fine from day one of a late Self Assessment, even if you owe nothing
⚠️ Daily penalties kicking in from 3 months
⚠️ Further charges at 6 and 12 months
⚠️ Interest charged on unpaid tax from the original due date
⚠️ Surcharges for repeated late VAT returns

The good news? All of this is avoidable with the right support in place.

At Gluck Accountants, we keep track of every deadline so you never have to worry about missing one.

If you can't answer these 5 questions about your business finances off the top of your head, it's time to get closer to your numbers.

1️⃣ What is my gross profit margin?
2️⃣ What is my net profit margin?
3️⃣ How long are my customers taking to pay me?
4️⃣ What is my true monthly cash position?
5️⃣ How many months of cash runway do I have?

Knowing them helps you plan ahead, grow confidently, and avoid being caught short.

At Gluck Accountants, we help you track and understand what matters most in your business throughout the year.

June is not the quietest month on the tax calendar, and missing a deadline, even a small one, means interest and penalties from HMRC.

Key dates to know this month:
📅 19 June — PAYE and NI payments due (post)
📅 22 June — PAYE and NI payments due (electronic)
📅 30 June — End of Q1 for April to March accounting periods
📅 1 July — Corporation Tax instalments due for large companies

Even if none of these apply to you directly, June is a good time to check in on your quarterly position, especially if you want to avoid any surprises when your year-end approaches.

At Gluck Accountants, we track every deadline for every client so nothing slips through.

HMRC opens tens of thousands of tax investigations every year, and they don't always start because something has gone wrong.

Enquiries can be triggered by random selection, inconsistencies in your returns, or unusual movements in profit. Being prepared matters far more than most business owners realise.

What HMRC typically looks at:
🔍 Unexplained drops in turnover or profit
🔍 High expenses relative to income
🔍 Inconsistencies between returns over multiple years
🔍 Missing or incomplete financial records

The best protection is accurate records, timely filings, and an accountant who keeps things in order throughout the year, not just at deadlines.

At Gluck Accountants, we make sure your records and returns are always HMRC-ready.

High sales often look like success, but they don’t always mean a business is financially healthy.

Without strong profit margins, healthy cash flow, and controlled costs, high turnover can actually hide underlying problems.

That’s why it’s important to look beyond revenue and understand what’s really driving your numbers.

At Gluck Accountants, we help business owners turn sales figures into real financial insight so they can grow sustainably and profitably.
