Hi folks.
I’ve been up and running for nearly 8 months now working alone. I’ve kept all receipts and invoices and kept records of income/outgoings etc.
I’m paying voluntary class 2 NI but starting to wonder if I should as it seems the benefits it provides don’t apply to me so perhaps I shouldn’t be paying it. I’m thinking maybe I should have an accountant to help but my income isn’t exactly huge and I think I can do everything myself. That said, maybe an accountant will make things tidier for me. I may be over recording info etc.
Are there any other sole traders who work alone that use an accountant and do you think it’s worthwhile or necessary?
