Need help preparing for Making Tax Digital (MTD) for Income Tax Self Assessment (ITSA)? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019ve got your back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

HMRC has flicked the switch with MTD for VAT<\/a>, which is already in full swing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The next stage is MTD for ITSA<\/a>, which will start in April 2026 for sole traders and landlords with an income over \u00a350,000, and in April 2027 for those with an income over \u00a330,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MTD for ITSA, the most significant change since Self Assessment hit the UK in the 1990s, will impact millions of businesses like yours. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It demands a new approach as an accountancy or bookkeeping practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By signing up to Sage for Accountants<\/a>, you\u2019ll automatically receive an exclusive 4-Step Practice Success Plan, a masterclass programme presented by industry experts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019ll give you the skills and confidence to build and deliver a clear, confident and profitable plan for the practice and your clients, and help you be ready for MTD for ITSA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is MTD for ITSA and how can you turn it into an opportunity?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Those are two of the questions that our 4-step masterclass programme will answer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MTD for ITSA means stripping out manual mistakes from the tax return process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In turn, it means you can make your practice more efficient and strengthen customer relationships by boosting the quality of your work and offering more than just compliance support. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because software and automation will do the boring bits, you\u2018ll have more time (and energy) to give your clients invaluable advice face-to-face\u2014and that\u2019s where the opportunity is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check out this ROI calculator<\/a> to learn how automation can help you save time and money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, you\u2019re not competing with other accountants and bookkeepers around software products. You\u2019re fighting around quality of service, relationship building, and expertise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If clients want to make a big business decision, it\u2019s your advice they\u2019ll look for\u2014and they could be willing to spend a premium for your time. You must create a plan to put the right strategy into place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is where our 4-step masterclass programme can help you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What if your processes and systems aren\u2019t ready for MTD for ITSA?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Time, money, stress. All good reasons to put off planning for MTD for ITSA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Or are they?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After signing up to Sage for Accountants and unlocking the 4-Step Success Plan, you can access an exclusive series of masterclasses with supporting tools and resources. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019ll help you build and deliver a clear, confident, and profitable plan for MTD that minimises disruption and risk, and maximises opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It will also help you to unify processes and systems to measure your success and gain efficiencies across the whole practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prepare now for less stress later<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Here\u2019s what you\u2019ve got to look forward to from the masterclasses:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
