In this "How to do your own tax return" I will show you step-by-step how to submit your own UK self assessment tax return online with HMRC.

If you are a UK based small business owner with a straightforward business or an individual who needs to submit a tax return you can easily do it by yourself.

You will save on accountants fees and you will be in control of when your tax return is submitted.

I will cover what you need to include on your tax return, explain where you can find the information and then show you how to input on the HMRC website.

It's not an accounting course, so you will need to know your self employment income and expenses to include on your return.

It's also not meant for complex businesses, where I would still recommend using an accountant.

If you have capital gains or foreign income, please be aware that I haven't covered these. But for most people, these sections will not be required.

At the end of the course, you will realise that completing your own UK tax return is not as scary as you think. You can do it, and next year you will find it even easier!

The examples I show you are for the 2017-2018 tax year, but can still be used to help you complete your 2019-2020 tax return.
