YEAR END CHECKLIST- THE DO’S AND DON’T’S
As the financial year nears its end and change seems to be the theme for the forthcoming year, be it the UK leaving the EU or the prospect of a new US president, one thing is certain, we will all still have to pay our taxes. What we can do though is ensure that we lessen the impact of tax and ensure that you benefit, where possible, on tax reliefs.

Off Payroll working – what next?
The UK tax system recognises services can be provided in different ways, each of which carry their own tax consequences.
