The Self Assessment Deadline is Looming

The deadline for filing on paper for the tax year which ended April 5 2011, passed on October 31 last year.
However, you can still file online up until midnight on Tuesday 31st Junaury 2012; any tax due must also be paid by this date.

Meeting the deadline is more important than ever because HM Revenue & Customs has introduced tough new penalties for late-filed tax returns.
There is now a £100 fixed penalty for submitting your tax return late, even if you have no additional tax to pay; previously, the fine was £100, capped at the amount of tax unpaid as at January 31st.

If the return is more than three months late, there is a £10 daily charge, capped at £900 or 90 days, and after six months, a further penalty of £300, or 5 per cent of the tax at stake is applied.

To avoid getting caught out by this deadline or to obtain any advice on how to file your tax return, please contact us at Crombies Accountants on 01902773993.

Children In Need Update

We thought we would share that Alex's certificate for the fundraising he did for children in need back in November was delivered a few days ago. Once again we would like to portray how proud we were of his brave antics, and can't wait to see what he does this year!!

New Member of Staff

We would proudly like to welcome Alec Walton to the practice. Alec has been with us for the last 2 months and has bedded in well with our clients and staff. Alec is situated on John Young's team as an audit and accounts assistant.  He is currently studying towards his AAT qualification as a junior. In his own time he enjoys watching Sports, follows Wolverhampton Wanderers but mainly Leicester Tiger’s rugby club. We hope his future with us will be a long & successful one.

Children In Need 2011

We can always count on Alex Dangellilo when it comes to giving yourself up for the cause, but we never envisaged that he would go this far to represent the team. On Friday 18th November in the spirit of Children in Need and all for a good cause, Alex (Nancy) donned a series of female outfits and paraded himself proudly for all to see outside the Crombies Head Office in Wolverhampton. We all feel like proud parents, especially as he managed to raise nearly £200 for charity!!.

Here are a few of his best snaps...'Till Next Year'

Dave has not only been a professional, reliable and popular member of the Crombies team but he is also one of our best Go-Karting drivers!! and will be sorely missed. We obviously wish Dave all the best success in his new role, and will look forward to seeing him at future 'racing'/networking events representing his new employers.
