What it does not do
It does not submit anything to HMRC. Nothing is filed on your behalf and no return is sent without you. The distinction matters: a figure prepared for you is still a figure you are responsible for.
Making Tax Digital
Income and expenses are recorded as you go and totalled cumulatively across the quarters, which is the shape MTD for Income Tax expects. Keeping records through the year is the part that actually takes effort; the quarterly total is arithmetic once the year is recorded properly.
Mileage and allowances
Mileage is calculated at the HMRC rate for the tax year in question, not at the current rate. An amended return for an earlier year computes at that year’s rate, which is the correct treatment and the reason the figure sometimes differs from a calculator that only knows today.
