Self Assessment advice!

Nick

Hope this is the right place to post this.

I’ve just filled in my SA on the Govt site for 21-22 (Unfortunately got the wrong time period which is my mistake)

In total I earned around 7k from a brief freelancing job. This was on the side of full-time work (with an annual salary of 25k) where deductions were made by my employer.

At the end of the SA it says my total to pay is approx 6k which seems ludicrous as that’s nearly the entire amount I got paid for the freelancing gig.

Is this because my total annual income was approx 32k and therefore that taxable amount is correct?

Thanks!

Hi Nick,

Unfortunately, we can’t really provide you with advice on this. An accountant would need to review your Self Assessment tax return to make sure it’s been correctly filled in and calculate the tax owed.

We do have a Personal Tax calculator that you can use to estimate how much tax you should owe. As a starting point, you could try inputting your details into this to see if the amounts are similar.

You can download the calculator from our Resources page.

All the best,
Katie
