Hackney Central r&d tax credits FAQs
Does my work actually qualify as R&D?
The test is whether you sought an advance in science or technology by resolving uncertainty a competent professional couldn't readily solve. Routine development doesn't qualify; genuine technical problem-solving often does. Our free eligibility review gives you a straight answer before you spend anything.
How much is a claim worth?
Under the merged scheme, broadly a 20% expenditure credit on qualifying spend — staff costs, subcontractors, software, consumables. A company with £100,000 of qualifying spend sees a benefit in the region of £15,000–£16,000 after tax.
What if HMRC opens an enquiry?
Enquiry rates have risen sharply, which is why our narratives are written to answer HMRC's questions before they're asked. If an enquiry does open, we respond on your behalf — including for claims other advisers prepared.
Do I need to visit an office in Hackney Central?
No — there's nothing to visit and nothing to print. We're an online firm: records go through our secure portal or WhatsApp, and everything is filed electronically. It works the same whether you're in Hackney Central or anywhere else in East London.
I searched "r&d claim near me" — is this service really local to Hackney Central?
Hackney Central is fully covered, yes. The work is done online, which in practice means more local than an office: same-day replies instead of appointment slots, and the same published fixed fee whether you're in Hackney Central town centre or the edge of East London. If you'd rather talk it through first, WhatsApp us — a real person answers.
Who will actually handle my r&d claim?
Bohzo Accountants — a trading name of Bohzo Ltd, a registered UK company (No. 15031604). You get a named contact, a fixed fee in writing, and nothing is filed until you've reviewed and approved it.
How do your fixed fees work?
You tell us your situation, we quote one fixed price in writing before any work starts, and that price never changes mid-job. If your case is unusually complex we'll say so up front and agree a different fixed price — but the fee is always agreed before we begin, never after.
Tax, briefly — the parts that affect Hackney Central
Online Self Assessment returns are due by 31 January, along with any balancing payment — and HMRC's £100 penalty applies the moment the deadline passes, even if you owe nothing. Most Hackney Central clients who come to us in January still file on time; the records just need to arrive before the last week.
If you contract through your own limited company, IR35 asks whether you'd be an employee without it. For medium and large clients, the status decision is theirs; for small clients, it's still yours — and getting it wrong in either direction costs money.
Company deadlines run off your accounting year end, not the tax year: corporation tax is payable nine months and one day after year end, and the CT600 return is due twelve months after. Confusingly, the payment is due before the return — a sequencing quirk that catches new directors.
The businesses that struggle with tax bills rarely have a tax problem; they have a timing problem. Knowing the bill in September instead of January — which filing early gives you for free — is the difference between planning and scrambling.
The first tax bill is the hardest because it can arrive with payments on account attached — up to 150% of the year's tax in one go. New businesses that save a quarter to a third of profits from day one never feel it.
Incorporation isn't a milestone, it's a calculation: corporation tax versus income tax and NICs, dividend taxation, what you need to draw versus what can stay in the company, and whether limited liability matters for your work. For some Hackney Central businesses it saves thousands; for others it's pure extra paperwork.
If a return is late because HMRC asked for one you don't actually need, it can sometimes be withdrawn entirely — penalties included. And where there's a genuine reasonable excuse, appeals succeed more often than people expect. The wrong move is ignoring the letters.
Subcontractors under the Construction Industry Scheme have 20% deducted at source — often more than their final tax bill once expenses and the personal allowance are counted. That's why CIS refunds are so common: the average claim is well into four figures, but only if the deduction statements are all gathered.
General guidance, not personal advice — thresholds and dates change. For advice on your own position in Hackney Central, message us and we'll answer against your actual numbers.
