The questions we get asked most.
When does Making Tax Digital for Income Tax start?
From 6 April 2026 for self-employed people and landlords with qualifying income over £50,000, based on your 2024/25 tax return. The threshold drops to £30,000 from April 2027 and £20,000 from April 2028.
Who needs MTD for Income Tax software?
Sole traders and landlords over the income threshold, and the accountants who file for them. HMRC no longer offers its own online return for anyone in MTD scope, so keeping digital records and submitting through software is mandatory.
What do I actually have to submit?
Digital records of your income and expenses, a quarterly update every three months, an annual adjustment, and a final declaration that replaces the old SA100 self assessment return.
Do I need to be online all the time?
No. The app keeps your records on your own computer and works offline. You only need a connection to submit to HMRC and to check your licence now and then.
Where is my data kept?
On your own machine, encrypted. Your figures, National Insurance number and UTR never leave your computer — only the submissions you choose to send to HMRC. ThisQuarter never stores your tax data.
I work in construction — does it handle CIS?
Yes. You can view the Construction Industry Scheme deductions contractors have reported against you (20% registered, 30% unregistered, 0% gross payment status) and see how they feed into your tax calculation.
Can accountants manage several clients?
Yes. Connect your HMRC Agent Services Account, invite clients to authorise you, then file quarterly updates, annual adjustments and final declarations for every client from one place.
How much does it cost?
Sole traders start free for their first two quarterly submission cycles, then £9 a month. Accountancy firms start at £19 a month, priced by how many clients you manage.
Which operating systems are supported?
Windows, macOS and Linux.
