5 things business owners and landlords will have to do.
What's changing ?
HMRC’s new Making Tax Digital for Income Tax Self Assessment (MTD for ITSA) rules will come into effect in April 2023. From then on, sole traders, partnerships and landlords with income above £10,000 will have to change the way they record and report income to HMRC.
Who does it affect ?
Sole traders, partnerships and landlords
Instead of submitting a Self Assessment tax return on
