Hi everyone, Finally thinking of getting back into accounting after nearly 5 years away. Currently employed by my local Police Force as a serving officer, and want to be able to offer bookkeeping services as a secondary income.
My only questions are as follows -
I want to offer my services to complete Self Assessment Tax Returns for some of my friends who work in as builders, sub contractors or work for their parents who are self employed also.
In short, they currently have someone else do their SA tax return, but i want to say I can do them and charge less to secure the work load.
Do I need any qualification, association to a body, or agent registration to be able to do this? There are so many conflicting answers to this on the forums, so thought id start my own. It seems as though if you are a registered agent with HMRC you can submit them on behalf of others, or you could complete the form but the client signs them through instead and submits them as though they did the calculations?
Thank you all
Anthony
