The Compliance Check – Under S9A of the Taxes Management Act 1970.

There on the mat lies the brown envelope which you open with trepidation, very often received on a Friday night or over the weekend. Any enquiry by HMRC can fill you with dread, lead you to panic and possibly straight on to Google! Many of my clients say it is second only to an adverse medical diagnosis for causing extreme anxiety.

When HMRC launches a Compliance Check into an individual’s tax return it is generally still known as a tax investigation. These enquiries are not undertaken at random, but following an HMRC in-depth risk assessment, before any letter is issued. It is not a fishing expedition!

Any investigation into your tax affairs is likely to be highly disruptive to your business and family life. Here Lindsay’s involvement pays dividends, as not only will she give you a free initial overview on the phone, but her prices are more than competitive.

It essential that you get expert, specialist advice from the very minute that you receive the letter, and a phone call is the best way – with ‘nothing ventured, nothing gained’ you will find Lindsay very approachable, practical, knowledgeable, helpful and never judgemental. Whatever you decide you will go forward with more information, peace of mind and ‘forewarned is always forearmed’ and everything is in complete confidence. And no, you are not going to jail!

Call 07879 464 577 at any time, but often a quick text, or contact on email or in the calendar first, ensures we both have time to devote to hearing your story and fears.
