Registered for SA in Spet 2020, I assume I dont need to do a retrun this year?

I started up as a self empoyed person last september after setting up a side business alongside my main employment and at the same time registered as Self employed.

Am I right in thinking I dont need to do a SA this time round and its next time round I do it?

I still need to sort out an accountant for answering the other questions but thought i'd get the important one on here out the way first of all.

your business (self employment) commenced in Sept 2020, so in tax year 20/21 
SA for 20/21 is due after 5 April 2021 when the year is complete, with the absolute final filing deadline of 31 Jan 2022 - of course you do not have to wait until 31 Jan before submitting!
