Tax Enquiries & Investigations Services Bury
Tax can often be a complicated aspect of business, and it can become even more complicated – or at least more of a concern – when HMRC chooses to investigate you, either as an individual or as a business, to ascertain just what is happening with your tax.
HMRC tax enquiries
can happen at any time to anyone, and since HMRC doesn’t need to have any particular reason to launch an investigation like this, you will never truly know if one is coming your way, but since more and more are being carried out, you should always be aware that it could happen to you. No matter what size of business you are, from a sole trader to a large limited company with hundreds of employees, HMRC tax enquiries can be launched and an investigation carried out.
An investigation into your taxes from HMRC is long-winded and drawn out, and it can be extremely distracting from your everyday business duties. It is necessarily intrusive and, even when you have nothing to hide, as will be the case for most business owners, it will be a stressful time.
During an HMRC tax investigation, HMRC will have the power to inspect any business documents they feel are important (going back as much as 20 years), and any assets you might have, and they can do this at your premises – if you work from home, you can see how this would clearly be very problematic.
