Practical tax advice for real tax problems
Tax advice should not be vague, generic or based on assumptions. The correct answer often depends on the tax year, residence position, income source, ownership structure, company records, VAT status, HMRC correspondence, filing deadlines and what has already been submitted.
Whether you need help before filing a tax return, responding to HMRC, disclosing undeclared income, deciding between self-employed and limited company status, selling a property, receiving foreign income or planning director salary and dividends, we provide advice that can be acted on.

Advice route map
Find the right tax advice by what has happened
Good tax advice starts with the event, not the form. The same taxpayer may need different advice depending on whether they are filing, correcting, selling, restructuring, receiving foreign income or responding to HMRC.
Before filing
Use this route if you need to check income, expenses, reliefs, supplementary pages or HMRC calculations before submitting a return.
Before selling
Use this route if you are selling property, shares, crypto, business assets or jointly owned assets and need CGT advice first.
Before replying to HMRC
Use this route if HMRC has sent a letter, compliance check, nudge letter, information request, penalty or enquiry notice.
Before restructuring
Use this route if you are incorporating, taking dividends, changing business structure, registering for VAT or planning director salary.

HMRC guidance and technical tax review
Tax advice based on the facts, the tax year and HMRC position
Tax advice must be grounded in the correct tax year and the correct rules. For example, Self Assessment advice may depend on whether income is already taxed at source, property advice may depend on rental income and allowable expenses, and company advice may depend on the accounting period, profits and extraction route.
We review the evidence before advising. That may include tax returns, accounts, rental statements, foreign tax certificates, HMRC letters, payslips, company records, VAT reports, payroll filings, bank statements or completion statements. This helps ensure the advice is not only technically correct, but also practical and capable of being supported if HMRC asks questions.
Important tax advice points
The same facts can produce a different answer depending on the tax year and filing deadline.
Good tax advice depends on records, calculations, ownership details and HMRC correspondence.
Where HMRC has written, the wording, powers and deadline must be reviewed before replying.
Tax advice is usually most valuable before the transaction, sale, disclosure or filing is made.

Why choose specialist tax advice instead of generic guidance?
General guidance explains the rules, but it does not apply them to your exact facts. Specialist tax advice considers the taxpayer, tax year, documents, risks, HMRC deadlines, reliefs, penalties and practical options. This matters where a decision cannot easily be reversed.
We help you avoid common tax advice mistakes
- Relying on generic advice that does not match your facts
- Filing before checking reliefs, exemptions or disclosure risks
- Ignoring HMRC deadlines, penalties or appeal routes
- Using the wrong structure for a business or property position
- Missing foreign income, CGT, VAT or Corporation Tax consequences
- Replying to HMRC before understanding the enquiry scope

Common questions
Tax Advice Telford FAQs
Can you provide tax advice before I file a tax return?
Yes. We can review your income, expenses, reliefs, allowances, tax calculations and HMRC filing position before the tax return is submitted. This is often better than trying to correct a return after it has already been filed.

Yes. We advise individuals, landlords, directors, sole traders, limited companies and business owners. This includes Self Assessment, rental income, Capital Gains Tax, foreign income, Corporation Tax, VAT, payroll, tax disclosure and HMRC compliance checks.
Can you help if HMRC has written to me?
Yes. If HMRC has sent a letter, compliance check notice, penalty, information request or nudge letter, we can review it and advise on the safest way to respond. You should avoid sending a rushed reply before understanding what HMRC is asking.
Can you advise whether I should be self-employed or limited company?
Yes. We can compare the tax and compliance position for sole trader and limited company structures, including Income Tax, National Insurance, Corporation Tax, dividends, payroll, VAT, accounts and administration costs.
Can you provide tax advice for landlords?
Yes. We advise landlords on rental income, allowable expenses, mortgage interest finance cost relief, joint ownership, non-resident landlord issues, undeclared rental income and Capital Gains Tax on property sales.

Can I get an instant quote for tax advice?
You can use the instant quote page for an initial fee indication. Some advice can be fixed-fee, but complex matters involving HMRC, disclosure, multiple years, foreign income, company tax or written advice may need a review before the final fee is confirmed.
Do you offer discounts for new clients or referrals?
We may offer a new client or referral discount where the advice is straightforward and documents are clear. The discount depends on the tax issue, complexity, deadline and whether calculations, filing or written advice are required.
