Creatives Claim It Back Using Tax Reliefs Like S64 ITA 2007
Are you a creative professional losing a chunk of your salary to excessive tax deductions? You’re not alone. Many freelancers, designers, filmmakers, and self-employed artists overpay tax simply because they’re unaware of the available reliefs.
The good news? Jungle Tax, the leading tax advisor for creatives, helps you reclaim what’s rightfully yours using smart tax relief strategies like S64 ITA 2007 and other income tax relief options.
Why Are You Overpaying on Taxes?
Many creatives unknowingly pay more tax than necessary due to:
- Unclaimed deductions and tax reliefs
- Lack of awareness about tax-efficient income structures
- Missed deadlines for reclaiming overpaid tax
- Insufficient tax planning tailored to the creative industry
At Jungle Tax, we specialize in optimizing tax positions for creatives, ensuring that you claim every relief available.
Key Tax Reliefs You Can Claim
1. Income Tax Relief Under S64 ITA 2007
If you’ve had a slow business year or financial losses, Section 64 of the Income Tax Act 2007 allows you to offset those losses against your salaried income. This means you can claim back overpaid tax and reduce your overall liability.
2. Professional Expense Deductions
Work-related expenses should be deducted from taxable income. Eligible expenses include:
- Professional memberships & subscriptions (industry guilds, unions, licensing fees)
- Training & workshops (skills enhancement, professional development)
- Equipment & software (laptops, design tools, cameras, editing software)
- Work-related travel & accommodation (conferences, networking events)
- Marketing & advertising (website costs, social media ads, branding)
3. Creative Industry-Specific Tax Reliefs
Certain sectors within the creative industry have additional reliefs, such as:
- Film, TV & Video Games Tax Relief – Claim back up to 25% of production costs.
- R&D Tax Credits – Innovators in tech, software, or media may qualify for rebates.
- Theatre & Performing Arts Tax Relief – If you’re in live performances or theatre production, you may be eligible for significant deductions.
4. Overpaid PAYE Tax Refunds
Freelancers who also work under PAYE employment often overpay PAYE tax. If you’ve switched jobs or worked multiple contracts, you might be owed a tax refund. Jungle Tax reviews your PAYE records to ensure you get back what you’re due.
5. Reclaiming Overpaid National Insurance Contributions
Do you earn as both a freelancer and an employee? You might be overpaying National Insurance Contributions (NICs). We help identify overpayments and ensure you reclaim the excess.
