FAQ

Statutory Audit Services: London & UK FAQ

How long does a UK tax investigation take?

The duration varies. A simple aspect enquiry may be resolved in 3–6 months, while a full investigation into a UK limited company can last over a year. Our goal is to expedite the process by providing HMRC with precise, organized data.

Can I appeal an HMRC decision?

Yes. If you disagree with an HMRC assessment or penalty, you usually have 30 days to lodge an appeal. AcumenAGC specializes in representing clients during the appeals process and at Tax Tribunals.

What triggers an HMRC investigation?

Triggers include inconsistencies in filed returns, tip-offs, or simply being part of a “risk sector” targeted by HMRC. Sometimes, businesses are simply selected at random for a compliance check.

Are your fees tax-deductible?

In many cases, the accountancy fees for negotiating an HMRC enquiry are not deductible if they relate to personal tax or if significant errors are found, but we can advise on the specific tax treatment for your business.

Do you offer HMRC compliant services for businesses outside London?

Absolutely. While we are a best tax investigation firm in London for small businesses, our cloud-based systems allow us to serve any UK-registered business or resident.
