Are you and your spouse making the most of your tax allowances?

Did you know you could reduce your tax bill by up to £252 a year through the Marriage Allowance?

If your spouse or civil partner earns less than £12,570 a year and you earn less than £50,270, you may be eligible to apply.

It’s quick and easy to check your eligibility and apply online via HMRC:

A little tax saving can go a long way!

Marriage Allowance allows you to transfer some of your Personal Allowance to your husband, wife or civil partner: what you need, how to apply for free online.

Making Tax Digital – a couple of important reminders!
As we head towards the end of September, we wanted to give our clients a quick reminder about Making Tax Digital (MTD) for Income Tax.

Next MTD quarterly update
If you are already using MTD, don’t forget that your next quarterly update is approaching. The current quarter runs until 5 October, with the update due to HMRC by 7 November.
If you haven’t already, now is a good time to make sure your records are up to date and your bookkeeping is ready to send to us.

MTD from April 2027
HMRC is also preparing for the next stage of MTD, which will apply from 6 April 2027 to individuals with qualifying income over £30,000.
HMRC will be contacting individuals who may be required to join MTD from April 2027. We’ll also be getting in touch with our affected clients next month with more information and guidance on what you need to do.

As always, if you receive a letter from HMRC about MTD, or you’re unsure whether the new rules will apply to you, please get in touch with us. We’re here to help make the transition as straightforward as possible.
