Income tax

Personal tax is changing rapidly and soon the way most businesses and individuals report their income to HMRC is set to change dramatically under Making Tax Digital (MTD). More about this later.

At Harris Bassett , not only do we ensure our clients comply with their taxation obligations by filing returns and making claims on time, but more importantly we ensure that we keep our clients tax bills to a minimum through careful planning and making tax efficient use of reliefs and allowances available.  This could quite simply take the form of claiming tax relief for the upkeep of uniforms to helping and advising clients with more complex affairs claim tax reliefs under the Enterprise Investment Scheme (EIS). No matter whether you’re an individual renting a property or have an investment portfolio, a partnership or sole trader we are here to help and advise you with your tax affairs.

If you fall foul of the Taxman, our tax department has over 35 years of experience in handling and settling tax enquiries quickly and efficiently. To ease the burden of the cost of dealing with enquiries, we offer all clients the opportunity to subscribe to our tax investigation service so that in the unfortunate event of an HMRC enquiry or VAT or PAYE compliance visit our fees are covered when we attend meetings and deal with HMRC directly on your behalf.

I have found the people who work at Harris Bassett to be consistently friendly, sincere and efficient. They have prepared my taxation returns for five years now and the way they interact with me has never changed. They have always returned phone calls in person, answered emails promptly and sent my taxation return to the taxation department  in good time. I have never thought of asking any one else to prepare my taxation return even though I live a very long way away from their office and have many accountants in the area where I live who are close by because I know I would be extremely lucky to ever find another firm who is as good in all respects as Harris Bassett.
