Frequently asked questions
Payments and penalties
Will sole traders and landlords be required to make quarterly payments?
As per current guidance, Making Tax Digital (MTD) for Income Tax will not change how tax payments are collected. A taxpayer’s income liability for MTD will continue to be assessed after the end of the tax year, as in the existing self-assessment process.
Are there financial penalties for missing a quarterly submission deadline?
During the voluntary testing phase of Making Tax Digital for Income Tax, there are no penalties for late quarterly updates.
Once MTD for IT becomes mandatory for a customer from April 2026, a penalty point will be applied for each missed submission deadline. However, a financial penalty will only be imposed after four penalty points have been accumulated.
Can I adjust payments on account for my clients via the MTD solution?
While agents can adjust client payment on account figures within the Thomson Reuters MTD software, these adjustments are not submitted to HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC). They are solely for internal use to reflect the client’s tax calculations accurately. Agents are currently required to make these adjustments directly within their client’s HMRC online services account.
