TAX POLICY: Budget ‘crackdown’ on personal service companies
This week’s Budget will stop freelance contractors taking their remuneration as dividends from personal service companies instead of taxable income, according to several newspapers’ accounts of a Treasury briefing. It is not clear whether the advertised measure is one of those already announced in last year’s Budget or Autumn Statement.
Discover How Recent Tax Changes Could Impact Your Finances Today
Staying updated on tax regulations is crucial, especially with recent changes that could directly affect your finances. At DND Law, we’re committed to helping you understand these updates and how they may influence your financial planning, investments, and day-to-day budgeting.
One of the significant shifts this year includes adjustments to income tax brackets and standard deductions. These changes could mean a higher or lower tax bill depending on your earnings. For some, the widened brackets might offer relief, reducing taxable income and potentially lowering your overall liability. However, others might find themselves in a higher bracket due to slight income increases, resulting in unexpected tax implications.
Additionally, updates to credits and deductions, such as the Child Tax Credit and retirement contribution limits, may alter your financial landscape. For families, changes in credit amounts or eligibility criteria could affect how much you owe—or how much you get back during tax season. Meanwhile, increased contribution limits for retirement accounts like IRAs or 401(k)s provide new opportunities for tax-advantaged savings.
Business owners should also be aware of modifications to corporate tax rates and potential deductions for operational costs. These adjustments might impact cash flow, investment strategies, or expansion plans.
