Do I need to file a Self Assessment?
Category:
Getting Started
You need to file a self assessment tax return if HMRC has asked you to, or if your income isn’t fully dealt with through PAYE. Common reasons:
-
You’re self-employed or a sole trader earning more than £1,000 a year (before expenses).
-
You’re a partner in a partnership.
-
You have rental income.
-
You receive significant dividends or investment income.
-
Your total income is over £100,000.
-
You have untaxed income (tips, online income, side gigs, crypto, etc).
