Most company owners pay themselves a salary and stop there. There is a smarter way.
A small salary around £12,570 keeps you within your personal allowance, maintains your NI record, and gets Corporation Tax relief. Take the rest as dividends at 10.75%, with no NI on top.
Bring in your spouse, civil partner, or adult children as shareholders and you can shelter even more. If your children genuinely work in the business, pay them a salary too. Legitimate, tax-efficient, and fully above board.
Same income. Less tax. Right structure.

The biggest change to Self Assessment in decades is here. Not coming. Here.
From 6 April 2026, if you’re self-employed or a landlord earning over £50,000 gross, the annual tax return you’ve always known is being replaced. You’ll now report to HMRC quarterly, four updates a year, plus a final declaration. Five submissions instead of one.
And the threshold doesn’t stop there. It drops to £30,000 in April 2027 and £20,000 in April 2028. This will affect almost every sole trader and landlord in the UK within the next two years.
Here’s what you need to do right now:
✅ Check your 2024/25 gross income, that’s what determines whether you’re in scope from April 2026
✅ Get MTD-compatible software in place as a standard spreadsheet won’t cut it
✅ Start keeping digital records of every transaction from 6 April
✅ Know your quarterly deadlines, miss them and the points-based penalty system kicks in automatically
The good news? If you’re already using FreeAgent or QuickBooks, you’re most of the way there. We’re a partner firm for both, so whether you need help getting set up or want someone to handle your quarterly submissions, we’ve got you covered.
DM me and let’s get you MTD-ready before it becomes a problem. 👇

5th April is less than two weeks away. After that, these allowances are gone for good.
Here are 5 things worth checking before the tax year closes:
1️⃣ Personal allowance: if you haven’t used your £12,570, a dividend before 5 April could shelter it from tax entirely.
2️⃣ Earning over £100,000? a pension contribution before 5 April could recover your personal allowance and save you thousands.
3️⃣ ISA allowance: £20,000, tax-free, use it or lose it. Cash ISA rules are also changing from April 2027, so now is the time.
4️⃣ Company owners: dividend tax rates rise on 6 April. Paying now saves £20 per £1,000. Simple.
5️⃣ Pension carry forward: unused allowance from 2022/23 disappears permanently after 5 April. Check it before it’s gone.
These aren’t complicated moves. They’re just easy to put off, until the deadline passes and it’s too late.
The information shared is for education purposes only. DM me or a professional tax advisor if you want to talk through what applies to your situation before 5 April.

🚨 HMRC wants to know MORE about your company’s finances — and you have until 10 June 2026 to have your say.
HMRC has launched a consultation proposing that small limited companies report ALL transactions between the company and its shareholders/directors directly to HMRC. We’re talking loans, dividends, cash withdrawals, asset transfers — everything.
This affects most small and family-owned limited companies in the UK. 👇
What’s being proposed?
✅ Mandatory reporting of director’s loan accounts
✅ Details of dividends and distributions
✅ Cash and asset transfers between company and shareholders
✅ Potential new penalties for non-compliance
Key dates:
📅 Consultation opened: 19 March 2026
⏰ Deadline to respond: 10 June 2026
Your voice matters. This is your chance to tell HMRC what’s realistic for small businesses before the rules are set.

Struggling to pay bills, staff, and suppliers every month?
It’s not always a revenue problem. More often than not, it’s a systems problem.
Without a clear view of your incomings, outgoings, and a proper budget in place you’re reacting to your finances instead of controlling them. And that cycle is exhausting.
The fix isn’t complicated. But it does require the right tools and the right mindset.
We’re a FreeAgent and QuickBooks partner firm, we help small businesses get their cash flow under control and keep it there.

HMRC doesn't tax your income. It taxes your lifestyle.
Every pound you withdraw from your business gets taxed on top of what you've already paid. The solution? Stop withdrawing more than you need.

You’re paying more tax than you legally have to. 💷
One of my clients saved £75,000 in corporation tax last year money they used to buy a warehouse for their business.
There are perfectly legal reliefs most business owners don’t even know exist.
The problem? Too many advisers who only see their piece of the puzzle. Nobody’s looking at the full picture.
