What is Making Tax Digital for Income Tax?
Making Tax Digital (MTD) for Income Tax is HMRC’s new way of reporting income. Instead of filing one annual tax return, taxpayers use MTD-compatible software to submit quarterly updates and other figures digitally to HMRC, prior to making a final declaration - keeping tax information accurate and up to date throughout the year and minimising the pre-deadline panic.
If you’re a sole trader, landlord, or construction worker, or if you’ve previously filed a Self Assessment tax return, you’ll need to start using MTD for Income Tax once your qualifying income passes one of HMRC’s thresholds. When that time comes, HMRC will contact you and you’ll no longer be able to use the online Self Assessment service. Instead, you’ll need software like !Easy MTD, which makes the entire MTD for Income Tax process quick, simple, and compliant.
