What is involved in making my claim?

If you do qualify, and after engaging our services their is little else we require for you to do. From this point we will arrange to collect all neccessary accounts and paperwork, carry out a Capital Allowance Review followed by a comprehensive Capital Allowance site survey a detailed survey report is produced with accurate valuations relating to the previous unclaimed qualifying items taking into account time and regional variations.

A current year claim is where we identify additional capital allowances which can be used by the client accountant for inclusion in a tax return for a year not yet submitted.

For retrospective Capital Allowance claims the report and supporting evidence is submitted to the HMRC by us with most claims being accepted by the revenue with in 6 - 10 weeks. To arrange an informal meeting with one of our Capital Allowance specialists, please call us 01246 293011, alternatively email sales@salmon-business.com

Why use Salmon Business Group to handle your claim?

There are numerous reasons why we are able to identify significant previously unclaimed capital allowances. The tax legislation covering capital allowances is complex and the interpretation of this legislation has changed many times over the years, (the latest budget is a case in point) and a review at a later date can reveal new areas to claim. Salmon Business Group can identify items that previously did not qualify but do now.

One of the main reasons we are able to make large retrospective capital allowance claims is the fact that vendors have rarely claimed all the capital allowances available and thus the purchaser has the opportunity to do so on the original items still in use. (Subject to contract).

Conservatives Set To Reduce Capital Allowance Rates.

The Tory Manifesto is about to close the Capital Allowances for Embedded Fixtures and Integral Features.

These refunds will be reduced greatly as the tax system is being simplified and complex claims are going to be abolished.

The reference says the Conservatives aim to cut the headline rate of corporation tax to 25p and small company rate to 20p funded by reducing complex tax relief’s and allowances. –see http://www.conservatives.com/Policy/Where_we_stand/Business.aspx second point on their priority list!

The opinion in the accountancy profession and of some financial guru’s is the Tories will attack capital allowances so I would strongly suggest clients act now or they will regret not doing so, this door will be closed in 2 years.

Salmon Tax Adjusters are the most competitive in the market, work on no win no fee basis, and the fee is not payable until the refund is in place – so you really have nothing to lose! Act now and get the Capital Allowances you are legally entitled to!

Whichever government was elected to lead us over the next term, cut backs were expected to hit business hard, and with Capital Allowances being amongst the most valuable methods of reducing property owners' income tax or corporation tax liabilities. The Conservatives have stated in their manifesto that they are seeking to target this tax advantage.

Don’t miss out on these valuable tax advantages whilst they are still available to you – speak with an adviser today and arrange a FREE site survey NOW

Capital Allowances | Retrospective Claims

Capital Allowances | Retrospective Claims

Confused about Capital Allowances?

With 50% first year allowances now scrapped and replaced by annual investment allowances covering embedded fixtures and integral features with 20% and 10% writing down allowances located accordingly. Is it any wonder many business owners are confused and are not claiming their full Capital Allowance entitlement.

A professionally prepared Capital Allowance claim could generate a substantial tax refund with significant tax reduction year on year. Capital allowance claims equate up to 35% of your freehold cost!

Capital Allowances arise from capital expenditure on:

* Purchase of an existing or newly built property
* Construction of a new property
* Building alterations, extensions and refurbishments to a property
* The fit-out of let property

If you are confused about Capital Allowance claims, you are more than likely not claiming your full entitlement.
Don’t miss out on these valuable tax advantages any longer – speak with an adviser today and arrange a FREE site survey NOW!
