Frequently asked questions
What is Making Tax Digital and why do I need an accountant for it?
Making Tax Digital is an HMRC initiative requiring businesses to keep digital records and submit VAT returns using compatible software. An accountant ensures your records are accurate, deadlines are met, and you avoid penalties. They also help you choose the right software and integrate it with your existing systems.
How do I know if an accountant in East Renfrewshire is qualified for MTD?
Look for accountants accredited by ACCA, ICAEW, or AAT, as these bodies require ongoing training in digital tax compliance. Many firms also display MTD-specific certifications on their profiles. You can verify their status through the directory's filtering options or by checking their professional register.
Can a Making Tax Digital accountant help with my Self Assessment tax return?
Yes, most MTD-specialist accountants also handle Self Assessment returns for sole traders and landlords. They ensure your income and expenses are recorded digitally and submitted correctly to HMRC. This integrated approach saves time and reduces the risk of errors across your tax obligations.
What should I expect during my first meeting with an MTD accountant?
The accountant will review your current record-keeping methods, discuss your VAT and tax obligations, and recommend suitable software. They will explain the quarterly submission process and set up a timeline for your returns. You will also agree on fees and communication preferences to ensure a smooth working relationship.
Are there penalties for not complying with Making Tax Digital?
Yes, HMRC can issue penalties for late submissions, late payments, or failure to keep digital records. The penalties increase with repeated non-compliance. Working with a qualified accountant helps you avoid these fines by ensuring your records are always up to date and submissions are made on time.
