Last chance to minimise tax in 14/15

The tax year is coming to a close on 5 April 2015. Once this date passes there are no longer the opportunities to reduce your tax for the 14/15 tax year and you will only feel the benefits of any further tax planning for the 2016 tax year. Have you fully utilised all your allowances and made tax-wise decisions to ensure you are not paying too much tax this year? Things you can still action:

For your business

  • Purchase of capital equipment
  • Purchase of any significant overhead expenditure
  • Planning around dividend and profit extraction
  • Director’s loan account management – is your director’s loan overdrawn?
  • Make charitable donations for gift aid

For you personally

  • Utilise both yours and your spouses tax allowances and tax bands, including the personal allowance and basic rate tax amount – taxable income can be transferred in some cases to the lower earner.
  • Ensure both yours and your spouses ISA allowances have been fully utilised.
  • Reduce the amount of higher rate tax you pay by topping up your pension contributions.
