Why not have a go yourself, you've done the real hard work already doing the books. If you book an appointment at the tax office they can help you no end. Theyve got a bad reputation but if you approach them for help, they generally will go out of their way to accomodate you. I have a general mistrust of accountants. i used to work in the civil service and was told by people in the know that the tax office are only too aware of who are good accountants and who arnt and theres plenty who arnt,and if yours isnt you are very likely to have your figures scrutenized, even more so than doing your tax return yourself. Trouble is, everybody puts faith in their own accountant without really knowing the truth. An accountant that keeps your tax bill down may sound like a godsend but it may come back and smack you right in the kisser.
