What to Do After a Tax Rebate Claim

Local Tax Accountant or Tax Adviser

As a small business owner you may not be aware of the fact that there is a difference between a professional business tax adviser and a local tax accountant. In essence, hosts who own business should be charging VAT on their service. Some other charges or taxes may also be applicable depending on the location of your establishment. Therefore, always check with your local tax accountant or tax adviser as to whether your activity can be subjected to any further taxes or levies. If you find that it can be, then it may well make sense to get professional help rather than trying to cope with it yourself.

Local Tax Advisor

The main differences between a professional, local tax advisor and a self-employed consultant lies in the fact that the latter has been trained to be fully aware of all the tax laws of both the UK and the US. He or she would also be fully aware of the VAT rates that apply to your home country. In addition, a local tax advisor is not only knowledgeable about UK tax law, but he or she can also assist you with issues such as local vat rates.

CCTA

One area where most small businesses have problems is the classification of their products as 'tangible' or 'service'. Basically, anything produced or hired for use on a commercial premise is potentially taxable. In the UK, this tax is known as CCTA and it is calculated by adding up the cost of the product (VAT) and any related expenses such as wages and labour, including overtime and other direct costs. There are two ways to arrive at the tax amount. They are either the retail price index (or PVI) or the local taxes rate.

Tax Refund 

Once you have worked out how much tax you will be paying on a specific purchase, you need to work out what your next steps should be. The first step is to request copies of your tax return from the tax office in your area and then compare it with the tax tables found on the internet. The next step is to contact your local tax advisor. He or she will be able to help you with the next steps to take after you have received your tax return. These include calculating your tax refund and ensuring that you have taken all the necessary deductions.

Tax Credits

The tax tables provided by your local tax advisor will allow you to determine which of the purchases you made last year were eligible for tax reduction. This usually involves working out how much you can save. You will also need to factor in the amount of tax credits that you may be entitled to, depending on your age and gender. If you are employed and receive an income, you may also qualify for tax credits equal to those available to self-employed people.

Tax Professional

If you do not file a joint tax return or have one partner who does not file, you will still need advice on how to file your own tax return. The local tax advisor will only be able to give you advice on those options that are applicable to your particular situation. If you do not meet the conditions for exemption and you do not itemize deductions, you will still need advice on how to reduce your taxable income. There are many different tax planning strategies that a tax professional can help you develop. You will need the assistance of someone experienced in all these areas to ensure that you get a good deal from your tax return.

Tax Return

The last step that you will need to take after you have completed your tax return and are getting advice from your local tax advisor is to calculate how much fat you will be liable to pay. The vat applies to personal taxes and the amount is usually equal to half of your adjusted gross salary. The amount of vat that you are liable to pay will vary according to whether you live in England or Wales, or Scotland, where the highest rate of tax is applied.

Tax Refund Claims

Your local tax advisor will help you complete these next steps so that you can get the most from the tax return that you have filed. The next steps that you will need to take include making sure that you send in any necessary tax refund claims. If you have not sent in a refund claim by the due date, you could end up owing more money than you should owe.
