This morning has been spent on training and I am pleased to say I am now officially a Xero Tax specialist.

If you are thinking about a change of software (or too software) with Making Tax Digital looming on the horizon then get in touch for a demonstration!

Over the coming weeks all self-employed individuals and landlords registered for self-assessment will receive a letter from HMRC outlining the upcoming changes to filing requirements as the move to Making Tax Digital looms closer.

Figures on your 2024/25 tax return will determine the date you will be part of the new regime and this could be as soon as April 2026 so it is key to get this information correct and submitted as soon as possible to give you plenty of time to plan.

The key changes will be the requirements to maintain digital accounting records and make quarterly submissions of income and expenditure to HMRC but my governing body have created a helpful article and video which explains in greater detail.

If this is something you will need support with please reach out so we can discuss it further.

ICAEW's Tax Faculty sets out the key things taxpayers and agents need to know about Making Tax Digital (MTD), including the timeline for the phased introduction of MTD for income tax.

As Janaury comes to a close I am thrilled to annouce that I am now a member of the Business Advisory Service run by the ICAEW. This reflects my specilaism in small and start up businesses and means that any potential new small and medium business clients can have 1 hour of free advice before signing up to my services.

And that's (hopefully) a wrap for 2024 as I sign off for the Christmas break with my family.

It's been another busy year with new clients and old and I've been lucky enough to see my business continue to grow and thrive.

January will be busy, as always, with quite a few tax returns still to submit before the deadline but I plan to face it refreshed and relaxed.

Wishing you all a very happy Christmas and a prosperous 2025.
