For many years, HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) has put extra
resources into pursuing more tax. As a result, clients face
an increased risk of an enquiry into their tax affairs.
Enquiries are often more complex than in the past and the
costs of responding are higher. So it is as important as it
has ever been for clients to obtain protection against those
costs.
If you are selected for an enquiry, it will take time to
answer all of the questions asked by HMRC and the enquiry
could drag on for many months. It can cost thousands of
pounds to defend you, whatever the end result.
To provide peace of mind, we have introduced a Tax Enquiry
Fee Protection Service. The Service is backed by an
insurance policy under which we can claim the costs of
defending clients in tax enquiries. Clients who subscribe to
the Service will also be able to obtain helpful advice about
the complex areas of Health & Safety and Employment Law.
Please read this
information leaflet about the Service. This answers
questions you may have about tax enquiries, sets out details
of our insurance cover and other benefits, and gives
information about our insurance provider.
We strongly recommend that all clients take advantage of the
Service. Please note that the costs of tax enquiries are not
included in our normal annual fees and clients who do not
pay for the Service will be charged the full amount of any
such costs.
If you have any questions and for details about the annual
service charge please contact us. |
