📅 Making Tax Digital: your next deadline is 7 November

Self-employed or a landlord with qualifying income over £50,000? Your second Making Tax Digital quarterly update is due to HMRC by Saturday 7 November 2026.

This one covers your income and expenses up to 5 October 2026 (or 30 September if you use calendar quarters).

✅ The key points:
🔹 Submit it through MTD-compatible software. Paper or HMRC’s old online form won’t do.
🔹 It’s a summary of totals, not a tax bill. No payment is due with your quarterly update.
🔹 Had a quiet quarter? You still need to send an update.
🔹 Missed August? HMRC isn’t giving penalty points for late quarterly updates this first year, but don’t let it become a habit, because that grace period won’t last.

💡 Our tip: 7 November is a Saturday, so aim to have it sent by Friday 6th.

Not sure if MTD applies to you, or want someone to handle it for you? Send us a message or give us a call. We’re happy to help. 👇

🧾 Drowning in receipts?

The shoebox in the van. The carrier bag in the glovebox. The pile on the kitchen table that's been "on the to-do list" since June.

If you run a business that racks up receipts — fuel, materials, stock, subscriptions, lunches on the road — you already know the pain. And every lost or unrecorded receipt is money you could have claimed back, gone.

Here's the good news: you don't have to deal with them.
✅ Send them over — a photo, a scan, or the whole messy pile. However they reach us, we'll take it from there.
✅ We sort, categorise and record every one, so nothing gets missed and nothing gets claimed wrongly.
✅ You get an accurate picture of your spending and a tax bill that reflects every legitimate expense.
✅ Your records are HMRC-ready, so there's no panic when a deadline or a query lands.

You get your evenings back. We get the paperwork under control. Everyone wins (except the shoebox). 📦

💷 Payroll: small to get wrong, expensive when you do.

One missed deadline, one wrong calculation, one late payment to HMRC — and suddenly you've got unhappy staff, penalties, or both. Yet so many small business owners are still running payroll themselves, on top of everything else.

A few things worth knowing for 2026/27:

✅ National Living Wage is now £12.71/hr for over-21s (£10.85 for 18-20s) — are you sure everyone on your books is being paid correctly?
✅ Employer National Insurance is 15% on earnings above £5,000 — it adds up faster than people expect.
✅ Employment Allowance can save you up to £10,500 a year off your employer NI bill — but only if you're claiming it.
✅ Auto-enrolment pension duties don't stop once you've set them up — re-enrolment, contribution checks and opt-outs all need managing properly.

Get any of this wrong and it's not just a numbers problem — it's a compliance one, with HMRC penalties and unhappy employees to match.

At Backup Accounts, we run payroll properly so your team gets paid right, on time, every time — and you're never the one chasing deadlines. Payslips, RTI submissions, pensions, the lot, fully taken care of.

Want payroll off your plate for good? Get in touch. 📩

🦸 Faster than a speeding deadline. More powerful than a surprise tax bill. Able to save your small business money in a single bound.

Running a small business doesn't need superpowers — just a bit of savvy with the tools already on your side.

Here's your small business superhero toolkit for 2026/27:

-Small Profits - profits up to £50,000 are taxed at just 19%, not the full 25% main rate. Know where you sit and plan around it.

-Annual Investment - deduct the full cost of qualifying equipment, tools or vehicles (up to £1,000,000) from your profits in the year you buy them. Big relief, instant impact.

-Salary vs dividends - directors, the right split between salary and dividends can quietly save you thousands a year. Get it wrong and you're leaving money on the table.

-Expense - every allowable business cost claimed properly (mileage, home office, subscriptions, training) chips away at your tax bill. Small, missed items are your arch-nemesis.

-VAT threshold - know exactly where you stand against the £90,000 threshold, so registering is a decision you make, not a surprise HMRC letter.

No capes, no loopholes — just the reliefs and allowances already available, used properly and used in time.

Every small business superhero needs a sidekick. Let Backup Accounts be yours — get in touch and we'll make sure nothing's flying under your radar. 📩
