Making Tax Digital for Income Tax Self Assessment (MTD for ITSA) is an HMRC requirement for keeping digital records and submitting quarterly updates. You must join from 6 April 2026 if your gross qualifying income from self-employment and property was over £50,000 in the 2024/25 tax year. If your income is below this, you can still sign up voluntarily.

Most accounting apps are built as financial cockpits for accountants, with jargon and complex dashboards. Avona focuses on absolute simplicity: connect your records, confirm your categories, and you’re done.

Yes. Avona identifies your income streams during onboarding and creates a separate ledger for each trade or property source, keeping the records clear while letting you manage everything from one account.

Yes, but the process changes. Instead of one annual scramble, you submit four quarterly updates throughout the year. Your quarterly data is then brought into a single Final Declaration due by 31 January.

Yes. Avona is an agent of Finexer Ltd (FCA Firm Reference Number 925695). We use bank-grade AES-256 encryption and host data on secure UK-based AWS servers.

That is exactly who Avona is designed for. We remove accounting jargon and present familiar tax categories in a simple, visual interface, so you do not need bookkeeping training to use it.

A digital link lets information flow electronically between the parts of your record-keeping process without manual retyping or copy-and-paste. Avona supports this through secure bank feeds and connected digital records.

HMRC uses a points-based penalty system for late submissions. Avona keeps your deadlines visible and sends reminders so you can stay on top of each required update.

No. MTD for ITSA changes how you keep records and report income, not the normal payment schedule. Your usual Self Assessment payment deadlines still apply.

Avona uses your National Insurance number to securely match your account with HMRC when you authorise the connection through Government Gateway. This lets Avona submit updates to HMRC on your behalf.

You can cancel from your Settings page at any time. Access continues until the end of your current billing period, and no further subscription charges will be taken.

Your records are retained in line with applicable tax record-keeping requirements. You can export your digital records in an HMRC-friendly format before or after cancelling.

Avona will let you know when your bank connection needs attention and guide you through reconnecting it, helping keep your digital records up to date.

Yes. If you own a property with a spouse or partner, Avona lets you record your individual share of the income and expenses so your personal figures stay accurate.

Avona makes record-keeping and submissions simple enough to manage yourself, but it can also work alongside your accountant. You can grant them access to review your figures and help with your Final Declaration.
