Course Details

Making Tax Digital for Income Tax Self-Assessment (MTD ITSA) is just under a year away and represents a fundamental shakeup in how affected taxpayers keep their records and interact with HMRC. 


The first landlords and sole traders will be mandated into MTD ITSA from April 2026.


From this date they will need to keep digital records and use software to file quarterly updates with HMRC. Bookkeepers will have a key role to play in helping taxpayers meet these requirements.

 

In this course Emma Rawson covers the following topics:

  • The MTD essentials – what’s changing and when?
  • Digital record keeping requirements under MTD – a deeper dive
  • Software choices
  • Working with clients and other advisers
  • Getting ready for April 2026
