Understanding Different UK Tax Returns in Bristol
When it comes to telling HMRC about your income and taxes, there are a few different forms depending on your situation. If you’re an individual with income outside of a standard job (like rental income or self-employment), you’ll deal with Self Assessment. Businesses run by two or more people who share control file a Partnership Tax Return. Limited companies have their own specific return called the Corporation Tax Return (CT600). Staying on top of these is essential, especially with changes like MTD for Income Tax coming in.
