SHEFFIELD, United Kingdom – 3 Dec, 2025 – Freelancers across Sheffield are being encouraged to file their 2025 self-assessment tax returns early as rising workloads, higher interest income, and new HMRC digital requirements continue to put pressure on January deadlines.
According to Pie, one of the UK’s fastest-growing self-assessment tax software platforms, early filing rates among Sheffield freelancers have risen sharply this year yet tens of thousands still risk last-minute penalties.
“Sheffield has a thriving freelance community from designers to electricians and many leave their tax return until the final weeks,” said Tommy Mcnally, Founder of Pie. “By filing early with smart digital tools, freelancers avoid stress, prevent mistakes, and get complete clarity on what they owe.”
Why Early Filing Matters for Sheffield Freelancers
-
Avoid January congestion: HMRC systems and accountants are at their busiest, increasing wait times and errors.
-
Plan for payments: Early filing gives freelancers months to budget for their tax bill.
-
Catch missed income: Bank interest, side work, and digital earnings often slip through late filers.
-
Reduce penalties: Last-minute mistakes cost Sheffield freelancers millions each year.
