    Hi

    I got married last year (2014) and as I am self employed (business startup) as of this year, Revenue have asked me to file a self assessment form and submit it. Is it best to get an accountant to do this? Is there any Irish service that can assist with this without charging a small fortune to make sure we are claiming the max amount of credits etc?

    Thanks

    Tax returns and Income & Expenditure Accounts fee all depends on the size of your business and turnover.

    You could look online/the local paper for Accountants who are looking to do nixers they would be cheaper, but just remember you get what you pay for!

    I would arrange a free consultation with a recommended Accounting Firm and get a quote from them.

    As a new business you may need to rely on an Accountant for more than just submitting your first Income Tax return. There is plenty of advise available to you as a growing business.

    Also accountants have an immense amount of knowledge about different trades and industries that can translate to a solution to a problem.
