MTD for Income Tax is on the way…
and yes, it sounds scary, but with the right setup and support, it really doesn’t have to be.
If you’re a sole trader earning £50,000, £30,000 or £20,000, HMRC is gradually moving you from one annual tax return to four digital updates each year, followed by a final declaration.
Making Tax Digital for Income Tax changes how and when you send in your figures. For some business owners, that can feel like a lot to take in. We completely understand that. The good news is, this is exactly the sort of thing we love helping people make sense of.
If you’d like a clearer explanation of how MTD works, we’ve explained it in more detail in our MTD IT blog.
Our role is simple. To make sure you feel organised, confident and comfortable with what’s required, without it ever feeling overwhelming.
On this page, you’ll see how Nära Accountancy can support you, whether you just need help getting set up or would rather we take care of everything for you.
MTD IT Set Up
If you’re not currently using accounting software, or your records are still mostly paper-based, this is the perfect place to start.
Our MTD Set-Up service gets everything organised properly, helping you choose the right software, setting it up correctly, and making sure it connects with HMRC as it should.
It’s ideal if you want to begin Making Tax Digital feeling confident, organised and supported, without having to figure it all out on your own.
Clean setup. Smooth start. Everything ready.
We’ve also created a free, plain-English guide to Making Tax Digital, so you can
understand what’s changing and what it means for you.
Self
Assessment
Self Assessment
Perfect if you’re happy keeping your own records but would rather not tackle the tax return itself.
If “do my Self-Assessment” quietly drifts to the bottom of your to-do list each year, you’re not alone.
You run your business day to day without a problem, but when it comes to tax, it suddenly feels heavier than it should.
That’s where we step in.
We’ll prepare and file your Self-Assessment accurately and on time, so you can tick it off properly and get back to running your business.
