The Virtual Tax Partner service

Need tax advice and technical support? A second opinion? Help in drafting a response to HMRC?

The Virtual Tax Partner ® (VtaxP ®) provides technical problem solving tax support to thousands of accountants and their clients.

Our Virtual Tax Support team are highly experienced qualified tax advisers and accountants.

VtaxP is a 'pay as you go' service: you are not tied into onerous contracts with us.

The VtaxP service is discounted if you have a subscription to this site: www.rossmartin.co.uk.

VtaxP acts as your own in-house tax partner, except that this partner is a dedicated team offering a wide range of expertise. 

VtaxP covers every area of direct and indirect tax, as well as accounting.

VtaxP support offers your firm flexible and personal assistance whatever the scope of the query, saving you extra salary costs.

VtaxP can:

• Provide answers to your queries.
• Review your work, give a second opinion, check your workings, check or draft a response to HMRC.
• Plan a transaction, or create detailed planning guidance and crib notes for a meeting about a specific topic.
• Draft tax clearances, provide working checklists with client advice notes.
• Assist in managing tax investigations, negotiating Time to Pay and penalties.
• Provide secretarial assistance in corporate transactions, company secretarial services and valuations.

We can work behind the scenes, or act directly with you and your clients. We operate a strict "no poaching" guarantee.

VtaxP can be used on an ad-hoc basis; there are no hidden costs, joining, or membership fees. It is priced competitively for even the smallest firms.

Paid subscribers to the www.rossmartin.co.uk webservice receive a 25% discount on VtaxP advisory services at www.Vtaxp.co.uk, discounts on training as well as receiving access to the tax information, guidance and toolkits on this website.

Why wait weeks for a response to a magazine query, or risk an on-line forum answered by strangers, who are so unsure of their own ability that they use pseudonyms?

Free up your mind and with it your time.

Getting started is simple: just go to VtaxP, post your query and sign up to the service.

We will then provide you with an estimate or quote to answer your query.

Once we have confirmed the price a member of the VtaxP team will commence work on your problem.

• The VtaxP portal is run by the technical tax team at Ross Martin Tax Consultancy Limited, a firm registered with the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW).
• For legal reasons, VtaxP is a completely independent business to www.rossmartin.co.uk, although some of the VtaxP consultants also contribute to latter's content.
• You are asked to raise your queries via the VtaxP secure portal, in writing. This is not a telephone helpline. Once queries are raised they are allocated to the most suitable adviser.
