About SK Tax Service
Back in 1989 Steve King resigned as a Director of Seatax Ltd, the firm he helped to found in 1979, and set up his own business, SK Tax Service.
Steve wanted to offer the friendly down to earth service that he felt most seafarers wanted. The success of the venture seems to indicate that the service Steve offers is what was wanted by a lot of you seafarers out there!
From working out of his dining room at home the business now occupies dedicated offices just outside the beautiful village of Westwoodside. Located some thirteen miles due East of Doncaster, it is handily placed only five miles from junction 2 of the M180 which means it is convenient for the motorway network. Also the local pub, The Duke William, is only a couple of miles away so any clients who do call through to see us are assured of a very convivial spot to discuss matters, if they wish! If you are driving over to visit our office please note, for your sat nav, that our office post code is DN9 2EN. The post code that we use with our PO box number (2WW) relates to the Post Office from where we collect our post! Do not hesitate to give us a call if you need precise directions to our office.
2009 Tax Returns
We have now reached the time when, if your return hasn't gone in yet, then you need to be getting a move on! The limit date was the 31st January and so in order to avoid any further fines, interest or surcharges you need to be dealing with this now. Also, if you have any tax to pay for the 2008/2009 tax year then this should have been paid by the 31st January in order so to avoid any further interest being charged you need to be dealing with this as quickly as possible. If you could visit our Tax Return Checklist you can print that off as a guide for you so that you know what information we need to settle your tax affairs up to date.
We are now aware that there are a lot of e-mail scams going round, and the latest one is where you receive an e-mail purporting to be from the Revenue informing you of a tax refund due to you. Please be advised that the Revenue NEVER contact you by e-mail regarding refunds, therefore please ignore any such communication. They are asking for your bank details to pay you the "refund" so be very wary of these.
