Accountant for Virtual Assistants, UK

You Do the Work. We Will Do the Tax.

Being self-employed as one of the UK's virtual assistants brings a tax position that rewards good record-keeping and punishes poor records. You can claim software subscriptions, hardware, home-office costs, training, professional insurance and phone, yet most people in the trade pay more tax than they need to simply because those costs are never properly captured. Get the records right and the bill comes down to what it should be.

Your Tax Help Accountants works with virtual assistants across the UK. Virtual assistants run lean, mostly from home, with software and hardware as their main costs. A proper home-office claim, software and equipment deductions, and the right sole-trader-or-company decision keep the tax bill down. One fixed fee, one accountant who understands the trade, and more of your hard-earned money kept where it belongs.

If you have only been claiming the obvious costs, you are almost certainly leaving money on the table. A quick review captures what you have missed and gets your tax bill down to what it should be.

Recent Client Outcome

How we helped a virtual assistant client keep more of what they earn

When a self-employed VA supporting several small-business clients came to us, they had been filing their own returns and declaring their income, but claiming only the obvious costs because they did not realise how much else counted. Their tax bill felt high for what they actually took home.

We went through their real position and claimed software, a new laptop, home-office costs and training that had been missed, and set up a simple way to keep records going forward.

The result was a noticeably lower first-year bill, a prior year corrected where it was still in the window, and a fixed annual fee, with tax season no longer a source of stress.

Virtual Assistants Questions Answered

Frequently Asked Questions

What can a virtual assistant claim?
Software and app subscriptions, laptop and hardware, a proportion of home-office and broadband costs, training and courses, professional insurance, your website and phone. Home-office and software are the main claims.
Sole trader or limited company as a VA?
Most VAs start as sole traders because it is simple. Once profit rises above roughly £30,000 to £40,000 a limited company can save tax. We tell you when it is worth switching rather than adding admin too early.
How do I claim working from home?
Either a proportion of your actual home costs based on rooms and hours used, or HMRC's simplified flat rate. For a home-based VA the proportional method is often more generous, and we calculate it for you.
How much does an accountant for virtual assistants cost?
A fixed fee, quoted up front after a free fifteen-minute call, with no surprise bills. For most self-employed clients it is typically covered by the expenses we capture and the tax we save, a predictable fee and an accountant who knows your trade.
I am behind on my tax returns, can you help?
Yes. HMRC charges an automatic £100 penalty the moment a return is late and it climbs from there. We bring you up to date across every outstanding year, claim what was missed, and appeal penalties where there is a reasonable excuse.
