A service shaped around your records
Before work begins, we confirm the periods involved, available records, filing responsibilities and the practical handover. You know what we need, what we will do and which dates matter.
From business records to your Income Tax return
A sole trader needs a clear picture of business income, expenses and other relevant income before an Income Tax return can be prepared. We help bring the records together, identify missing information and explain the work needed for Form 11 and the Pay and File cycle. The initial review also considers previous returns and correspondence, so unresolved issues are visible before the next deadline.
What to prepare for a consultation
- Sales invoices and records of all business income
- Expense receipts, bank statements and mileage records
- Details of other income and potentially relevant reliefs
- Previous tax returns and Revenue correspondence
Useful guides and next steps

English and Polish consultations are available by appointment at our offices: Cork City · Cobh.
Frequently asked questions
When should I contact an accountant?
Ideally before your first filing deadline. Earlier contact gives more time to organise records, estimate tax and avoid last-minute decisions.
Can you work with digital records?
Yes. We agree a simple, secure way to provide invoices, expenses and bank information that suits how you already work.
