Frequently Asked Questions
How does claiming Capital Allowances myself versus having a qualified professional do it differ?
Capital Allowances can be a complex area of taxation, and it’s possible to overlook some of the allowances that you’re entitled to claim. Our team of experienced tax professionals specializes in capital allowances and with our expertise, knowledge, and experience, we can help ensure that you claim all eligible allowances while also handling the administrative burden of calculations and claims.
How soon should I expect to hear back from your team if I have an inquiry?
We aim to respond to questions and concerns within 24 hours during regular business hours, but response times may vary based on complexity and team availability. Urgent cases receive priority, and we communicate clearly with clients regarding any potential delays.
How do you personalize your services to each client's unique needs?
We take a client-centred approach to tailor our services to your specific needs. This involves understanding your goals, challenges, and expectations, customizing our services to meet your needs, collaborating with you throughout the process, and regularly evaluating the effectiveness of our services to ensure they continue to meet your evolving needs.
Can I still make a claim Capital Allowances if I don't have detailed invoices?
While having detailed invoices for Capital Allowance claims is ideal, it’s still possible to make a claim without them. You can estimate the cost of assets and make a ‘just and reasonable’ claim based on the estimate, as long as it’s supported by evidence like bank statements or receipts.
What is the difference between Capital Allowances and Tax Depreciation?
Both Capital Allowances and Tax Depreciation are ways for property businesses to reduce their taxable income by deducting the cost of assets over time. However, Capital Allowances are a specific set of deductions allowed by the UK tax system for certain types of assets, while tax depreciation is a more general concept that applies to any asset that loses value over time.
What happens if I miss the deadline for claiming capital allowances?
It is not possible to reopen computations from many years ago to address missed claims for capital allowances. However, there are no legislative restrictions on when property businesses can include qualifying expenditure into their capital allowance pool, regardless of when the expenditure was incurred. This means that if the property business still owns the asset at some point in a later year, they can bring the costs into account as qualifying expenditure in that year. However, the claims will be Writing Down Allowances (WDA) only.
Do I need to change accountants?
No. We work alongside your existing accountant, providing specialist capital allowances and property tax services that complement their general accounting work. We collaborate with them to ensure seamless integration.
What properties qualify?
Commercial properties, holiday lets, furnished residential investments, mixed-use properties, and any property with qualifying fixtures, fittings, or plant & machinery. Most properties purchased or refurbished qualify for some level of capital allowances.
How long does it take?
Typical timelines are 4-8 weeks from initial review to HMRC submission, depending on property complexity and documentation availability. Urgent cases can often be expedited.
How much can I claim?
Typically 15-35% of the property purchase price or refurbishment costs can be claimed as capital allowances. The exact amount depends on property type, age, and qualifying expenditure.
Is it HMRC compliant?
Yes. All our work follows HMRC guidelines and legislation. We prepare detailed technical reports that stand up to HMRC scrutiny and are backed by our professional indemnity insurance.
