More Making Tax Digital news...

It's long been HMRC's plan for MTD to eventually be extended to corporation tax however HMRC have now confirmed that MTD for Corporation Tax will no longer be going ahead.

There are several posts doing the rounds online about MTD being postponed/scrapped but don't be fooled - that ONLY relates to Corporation Tax.

Making Tax Digital for Income Tax is definitely still going ahead, commencing next year for those initially affected.

As always bob us a message or email if we can help in any way.

What a lovely place to live and work!

We're in the midst of submitting the first quarterly update for clients who are signed up for the MTD for Income Tax trial, and it's really not as scary as some of the content online would have you believe! Unless that's just because we're so ace and have been prepared for this for a while now 😃

As a reminder, from next April, Making Tax Digital for Income Tax will be mandatory if an individual had income over £50k from self employment and/or rental property in the 24/25 tax year. That's income not profits. The threshold reduces over subsequent years.

There are a few quirks to the system and several myths online so if in doubt get advice from someone who knows what they're talking about (that's us by the way!) 😃
