How keen is the UK, in general, to embrace HMRC’s Making Tax Digital (MTD) initiative? Are we lagging behind other countries in adopting a digital system and have we gone far enough to digitise all business processes, rather than just the integration with the tax system?
HMRC has widened the pilot and simplified the quarterly requirements of Making Tax Digital for Income Tax Self-Assessment or MTD for ITSA for taxpayers with gross income from self-employment between £10,000 and the £85,000 VAT threshold, but many are concerned that the trial is too limited, the timescale too tight and the detail too brief to mean taxpayers will be ready for the April 2024 deadline.
Stuart Hulland, Partner at Bates Weston gives an update on the next phase of Making Tax Digital, MTD for Income Tax Self Assessment, now that the MTD VAT deadline has passed.
