As a self employed artist each year you have to fill out your F11 Form and make a tax return to Revenue. This year the due date for the filing of the 2024 Form 11 and the payment of taxes is Thursday, November 14th 2024.
With this in mind Creative Frame is delighted to welcome back Gaby Smith for a workshop on preparing your tax return. This is the second part in a two part session, following on from part 1 which focused on preparing your accounts.
In this workshop Gaby will walk us through ROS online system and section by section highlight the parts of the F11 form that we need to focus on when making our return.
If you didn’t attend the first workshop on preparing your accounts you are welcome to attend the second workshop on making your tax return however you will benefit most from this workshop if you have the financial information needed to populate our F11 form.
