Special seminar on tax for the self-employed

 

Tax and tax-related matters are often a headache, particularly if you are a freelance, self-employed or do a mixture of contract work and freelance.

 

Getting it wrong can also be expensive.

 

To help, the NUJ has invited accountancy firm HW Fisher to put on a special evening seminar on tax for the self-employed and staff who have recently become freelance.Their specialist Authors and Journalist Team also run a free tax helpline for members on 020 7874 7876 and offer  free one-hour face-to-face consultations.

 

The seminar will give an introduction to taxation. It will cover National Insurance for the self-employed, setting up in business, self-assessment, allowable expenses, operating via a limited company and tax enquiries and how to avoid them.  The final hour will be devoted to  a Questions and Answer session.

 

The seminar will take place on Monday, 1 July from 5:30 to 8pm at Headland House, 308-312 Gray's Inn Road, London WC1X 8DP
