How do I link my sole trader account with hmrc for making tax digital?

Hi there, Adam. You can go to the Taxes tab and click Join the Pilot to link your account with HMRC and make your taxes digital.

The new MTD for Income Tax rules become mandatory on 6 April 2026 for sole traders with a qualifying income over £50,000. To link your account with HMRC, you'll need to ensure you are registered for MTD on the HMRC website before authorizing the connection within QuickBooks. Once done, here's how:
 

1. Navigate to the Taxes hub from the left navigation menu.
2. Select Join the Pilot or follow the prompt to Connect with HMRC.
3. Follow the on-screen instruction.

Please don't hesitate to click the Reply button if you have other questions about QuickBooks.
