Importance of Completing a Self-Assessment Form
Permanent workers are usually paid via Pay As You Earn (PAYE). PAYE ensures that the employee’s income tax, national insurance, and student loan repayments have been deducted before the employee receiving their pay. However, self-employed individuals must pay to ensure that they have paid their taxes, national insurance contributions, and student loan repayments. If you are self-employed you must complete a self-assessment form to figure out what you owe and ensure that you have made payments before the deadline.
