BG Farming News
From 1 April this year we will be introducing a new electronic questionnaire to streamline the collection of your year-end information. Each client will receive a tailored online questionnaire, designed to capture the information and documents required to prepare your financial statements and income tax returns. Only once the completed questionnaire and supporting documents are provided will our team begin preparing your accounts. This new process aims to reduce follow-up emails, improve accuracy, and allow us to complete your work more efficiently during our busy periods. Please see our website here for a list of FAQs regarding this new system.
