Here is my [year] tax return and payroll summary for [business]. Check it for reliefs, allowances or credits I was eligible for but didn't claim (for UK employers, include the Employment Allowance). For each one, show the rule, why I qualify, the amount, and how to claim it or correct it. Mark anything you're unsure about so my accountant can confirm it.
