Fees

Unlike a traditional High Street tax practitioner we do not charge on a time basis but on a fixed fee for the year.  For clergy clients the 2006/07 Tax Return fee starts at £93.50 + VAT.  If there is a land and property schedule to complete the fee starts at £120.50 + VAT.  There is also a reduced fee for fully retired clergy and for certain spouses.  We shall be pleased to quote for non clergy and you will find our rates very reasonable.

There may be an extra charge for the more complex issues involving Capital Gains tax or small business accounts.

Our fee includes the checking of any tax coding notices, tax calculations, and statements of account that may be issued throughout the year.  If you have any worries you know that someone is always available by telephone and that you are not increasing your bill every time you call.

We offer a variety of payment methods including all major credit cards.  Recognising that many clergy families live on relatively low incomes we also offer payment by direct debit to help spread the cost of our fee.  Most clients pay less than £10.00 per month.

For new clients we will carry out a review of the last Tax Return that was completed making recommendations if we feel it would be wise to submit an amendment.  There is no charge for this service.

In addition to acting for Ministers of Religion we offer other services that may be of interest to clergy and non clergy alike.
