In Business : Tax Investigations

There is a continuing trend by the tax authorities to investigate an increasing number of businesses and individuals, a process which helps to maximise tax revenues without having to increase tax rates.

Random selection of cases under self-assessment and with more staff available due to routine work now being done by the taxpayer and agent, has led to an increase in the number and depth of investigations. This predominantly affects owner-managed businesses and those where there are often cash transactions. Investigations can be both stressful and costly for all concerned.

Chappell Associates' experience and expertise help safeguard you by dealing with the investigation timely and effectively; minimising the tax penalties and interest demanded and ensuring that your interests are well represented.

Advice concerning an investigation should be sought immediately to identify problems at an early stage.
