Making Tax Digital for Income Tax is the biggest change to self assessment in a generation. I help sole traders across the UK — including Milton Keynes and beyond — understand what MTD means for them and get set up without the stress.

Select your approximate annual self-employment income to find out where you stand.
The short version: more regular submissions, the right software, and no more year-end scramble.
You'll need to keep your records digitally using software that connects to HMRC — spreadsheets alone won't cut it. FreeAgent is fully MTD-compatible, and I can get you set up and trained on it quickly.
Instead of one annual tax return, you'll submit a summary of your income and expenses to HMRC four times a year. It sounds like more work — but with the right software it's straightforward.
You'll still complete an end-of-year finalisation — but it's much simpler when your records are up to date throughout the year. No more frantic January scramble.
MTD doesn't change how much tax you pay — it changes how and when you report it. The good news is that better records throughout the year often means fewer surprises at tax time.
I'm Claire, and I work remotely with sole traders everywhere — from Milton Keynes and Northampton to London, Manchester, and beyond. You don't need a local accountant to get great accountancy support. Everything is handled online, and getting set up for MTD is straightforward no matter where you're based.
