For self-employed businesses and landlords filing their own MTD for Income Tax updates and tax return.
For accountants and agents filing MTD for Income Tax on behalf of clients.
Making Tax Digital for Income Tax applies to self-employed businesses and landlords whose qualifying income is above the relevant HMRC threshold for the tax year.
From 6 April 2026, it applies if your qualifying income from self-employment and/or property is over £50,000.
From 6 April 2027, this will extend to those over £30,000.
From 6 April 2028, this will extend to those over £20,000.
You may also need to use MTD for Income Tax if HMRC has written to tell you that you must do so. Check HMRC guidance.
Even if HMRC does not yet require you to use MTD for Income Tax, you may choose to move to this method of filing earlier.
Ftax MTD for IT is HMRC recognised and fully MTD compliant. It is designed to cover the full filing cycle, from quarterly updates through to the end-of-year tax return and final declaration.
With Ftax MTD for IT you can:
Quarterly updates for MTD for Income Tax are based on cumulative totals. This means each update includes total income and expenses from the start of the tax year, not just the figures for that one quarter. This is different from MTD for VAT, where returns usually cover the figures for the period only.
Once all four quarterly updates have been submitted, Ftax enables you to complete the end-of-year tax return with the relevant tax return sections included. The return and any tax due must still be finalised by 31 January following the end of the tax year.
Unlike traditional tax returns, the MTD for Income Tax data submitted through the year is saved by HMRC and retrieved again when the tax return forms are opened.
Ftax MTD for IT has been designed to keep the process simple and low cost, while still giving you everything needed to file correctly.
Key features:
Ftax provides two ways to transfer quarterly update data into the MTD for IT forms.
If you already keep your records in a spreadsheet, Ftax enables you to transfer your totals using CSV files in an MTD compliant manner.
Ftax Cashbook provides a simple way to record income and expense transactions as they occur. Those totals can then be automatically transferred into the MTD for IT quarterly update forms.
For 2026/27, Ftax Cashbook is being sold at half price for one year only.
Use it to:
Whether you now need to comply from April 2026, are planning ahead for a later threshold, or are choosing to move over voluntarily, Ftax MTD for IT gives you a simple route to comply with HMRC’s new filing process.
Use Ftax to keep your quarterly updates and end-of-year filing in one place, with support for both spreadsheets and Cashbook-based record keeping.
