SCS Financial Management can help all businesses throughout Reigate and Surrey with their tax returns. When it comes to digital tax, we always provide the management you need.
Reducing Your Paperwork
One of the biggest problems businesses currently encounter when it comes to their tax returns is the paperwork that needs to be completed. Not only is the process of submitting taxes with paperwork very time consuming but it is also difficult to track transactions and record keep on paper. When it comes to then submitting your tax returns, copying figures from paper to paper is very frustrating.
Additionally, paper costs money which your business would be better spending elsewhere. With the switch to online tax, this allows you to save money on your paper and makes the process of submitting your taxes to the HMRC much easier. Instead of the faff you have sending your tax forms in, everything is completed swiftly online and processed correctly, so you never have to worry about paperwork again when it comes to tax returns.
Review Current Bookkeeping Processes
Tax turning digital should not only change the way you submit taxes but can alter your entire bookkeeping and accounting process. Times are rapidly changing and accounting has become much easier to manage using online software. Although outsourcing your finances can often be the best option, digital tax is a great opportunity for you to review other accounting processes.
If you are still completing bookkeeping manually or not on top of invoices and transactions, changes must be made. Using the best and most modern software available, accountants will manage all your finances effectively, allowing you to track all payments and prevent late payments from your customers. Along with this, record keeping will become much simpler, making tax returns and end of year accounts easier to complete.
Fewer Tax Errors
Whilst you may get your tax returns correct every year, digital tax will only help to reduce errors. When submitting tax returns through paperwork, mistakes can be made quite regularly. Additionally, paperwork can begin to look quite messy if you are constantly making amendments to it, which could lead to confusion from the HMRC.
This should never be the case with digital tax. Your digital tax records can constantly be changed without it being a big problem. All software you use for digital tax should be compatible with the HMRC software. Hence, when it comes to submitting tax returns, the HMRC should easily view your tax returns. They should understand every aspect of your tax records, without any errors leading to fines or penalties.
Access Anywhere
One of the best features online tax offers is that it is accessible from any location and any device. Whether you are working in the office or on holiday, you can regularly update your tax records. This means they are always up to date with your latest payments and transactions. As digital tax is available across all platforms, you do not have to be with your paperwork to make changes.
This can be essential for some businesses, especially when it comes to submitting your tax returns. If you have very little time remaining or need to make urgent changes, digital tax offers the perfect solution.
