Self-Employed Teacher? Tax Is Easier With GoSimpleTax
Moving from PAYE to Self Assessment isn’t taught in schools. It’s hardly surprising, then, that even teachers struggle to find their feet with filing tax returns. Our online tax return software changes that. By highlighting the steps that private tutors need to take to be compliant, our users can submit their Self Assessment tax return with total peace of mind.
We’ll walk you through all your obligations, from registering with HMRC (Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs) to claiming tax relief. Our software has a wealth of resources you can access online and even on your mobile.
But our assistance doesn’t end there. For those that regularly hold on to their receipts in order to add them to their accounts later, our app allows you to take photographs of your expenditure and upload them instead. This way, your tax return updated in real time.
As a result, we’re able to make you aware of any opportunities there may be to reduce your tax liability or claim additional relief. Such relief includes for self employed expenses like travel, home office costs, and utility bills if any private tuition is held in your own home.
