Got Questions? We've Got The Answers

1) Do I really need to tell HMRC about my OnlyFans income?

Yes. Even if it feels like “just a bit of fun” or “a side hustle.” HMRC treats it as income, and declaring it keeps everything above board — no nasty surprises later. Think of it as adulting… with a pay-off. 💸

2) I haven’t filed before — am I in trouble?

Relax. You’re not alone. Many creators leave it until it feels overwhelming. We’ll help you tidy things up step by step. One call can put your mind at ease. 🩹

3) Can I claim expenses for my camera, lights, or outfits?

Usually, yes! If it’s used for your content, it can often be claimed. We’ll help you figure out what counts — and what HMRC might raise an eyebrow at. 🎥💡

4) I earn in different ways — tips, subscriptions, brand deals — how do I declare it all?

Don’t panic. We break it down in plain English so you know exactly what counts as income. Every penny matters, and we’ll help you make sense of it. 🧾

5) I’m scared I’ll make a mistake. What if I get it wrong?

Mistakes happen. The key is to address it early. We guide you through corrections, help you file properly, and explain everything in a way that doesn’t make your head spin. 😅

6) Do I need a tax professional or accountant if I only post content online?

Not always. But if you want peace of mind, save time, and get tips for running your finances smarter, a chat with us is worth it. Your money, your rules. Lucky for you, here at OnlyTax we deal in both tax and accountancy!💪💰

7) I earn overseas or in different currencies — how does that work?

We understand. HMRC treats all income as taxable, no matter where it comes from. We’ll help you understand exchange rates, reporting, and what counts as UK income. 🌍

8) I don’t have time to figure all this out myself — can you help?

Absolutely. You focus on creating content, and we focus on keeping HMRC happy and your finances under control. Think of us as your tax co-pilot. ✈️

9) Will OnlyTax just help with HMRC, or can you help me grow my business too?

We do both. Beyond compliance, we’ll show you ways to take control of your income, plan ahead, and even look at tax efficiencies. Your business, your rules. 🚀

10) I feel overwhelmed — where do I start?

Right here, right now. Take a breath. You’ve already taken the first step by reading this. If anything feels tricky, reach out to us — we’ll make it simple, supportive, and totally manageable.
