MTD and future developments with HMRC

Hear from HMRC's programme director of MTD on future developments on MTD.

Making Tax Digital for Income Tax will require self-employed individuals and landlords to keep digital records and send simple quarterly updates to HMRC.

These changes will help to:

• reduce the chance of customers making errors, supporting business productivity
• ensure customers have up to date, accurate information to help with business planning
• move customers’ tax records onto one new system supporting wider improvements now, and in the future, so HMRC can deliver a better customer experience
• make sure customers pay the right amount of tax, so that more money can go to funding public services, like the NHS, and supporting growth across the UK.

Join HMRC’s programme director of MTD Craig Ogilvie and MTD external engagement lead Sam Wood, to talk all things MTD and help you understand how you can get ready and help your clients get ready for the change.

Friday 6 December, 1pm-2.30pm

Deconstructing advisory – why it’s simpler than you think

Shifting to delivering advisory services to clients is not only incredibly rewarding but becoming increasingly essential as technology shortcuts accounts production and related functions. But for some the word advisory is filled with ambiguity, for others it's a scare word and for some it excites them, but they're not sure how to deliver it or approach clients with it.

In partnership with Shane Lukas of AVN Inspiring Accountants, this 12-part webinar series will help you to understand and develop an advisory offering.

The entire series is now available on demand; register for the whole series.

In this series, they dive deeper into how they do what they do so that you can get an inside look at how a practice runs. Amy and James look at onboarding, handovers and relationship building, bookkeeping and VAT returns, preparing year end accounts and tax returns, self-assessment tax returns, staffing, and what the future holds.
