Self Assessment Software for accountants

Practice Self Assessment desk with unlimited logins. Buy filing credits, prepare client SA100s free, pay when you file. From £13.96 per return on 25 credits.

In short

Self Assessment Software is a practice SA100 desk with unlimited logins. Buy filing credits (10 for £179 to 100 for £999, ex VAT). Prepare every client return free; one credit covers one client tax year when you file. Not a suite — no bookkeeping, CT600 or payroll.

Why practices

Built for practices that only need Self Assessment

You should not buy bookkeeping, corporation tax or payroll to get a proper SA100 desk. File client returns with credits — staff seats are unlimited.

Credits, not seats

One credit equals one client tax year when you file. Partners, seniors and juniors all sign in — logins never consume the pack.

Full SA production

SA100–SA110, partnership SA800, combined calculation, SA302-style reports and an HMRC filing desk for every client in the organisation.

No suite fee

Not Capium-style lock-in. Not TaxCalc annual seats for a small book. Pay for filings when the season needs them.

How it works

How a practice files with credits

  1. 1 Register the practice

    Create an organisation and invite staff. Unlimited logins on one workspace.

  2. 2 Prepare client returns

    Draft SA100–SA110 and partnership returns free. Credits are not used while you prepare.

  3. 3 Review with the client

    Check the calculation, SA302-style estimate and schedule before you submit.

  4. 4 File with one credit

    Apply a credit for that client tax year and submit to HMRC. Amendments for that year are included.

Practice desk

What your team gets on the desk

Same forms and filing workflow as individuals — with a multi-client practice workspace.

  • Multi-client workspace Add taxpayers, open tax years, and keep each client’s return isolated inside your organisation.
  • SA100 to SA110 + SA800 Employment, self-employment, property, CGT, foreign, trusts and the partnership pack in one product.
  • Calculation & reports Combined tax calculation, SA302-style estimate, detailed schedule, payment note and tax letter.
  • Filing & approval Draft → review → approve → queue. Practices can send figures for client approval before filing.

What this practice desk does not include

Clear scope keeps filing credits on Self Assessment. Buy the right tool for the other jobs.

Not bookkeeping

No invoices, bank feeds or VAT. Keep FreeAgent, Xero or QuickBooks.

No CT600, iXBRL or Companies House. Use dedicated corporation tax software for that.

Not an accountant

Not MTD quarterly — yet

Year-end Self Assessment is included. Quarterly ITSA is a later add-on.

FAQs

Accountants — questions answered

How do filing credits work for accountants?

One credit equals one client tax year when you file. Prepare as many draft returns as you need without using a credit. The credit is consumed only at filing for that taxpayer year.

What do the packs cost?

List prices exclude VAT: 10 for £179 (£17.90 each), 25 for £349 (£13.96 each — most chosen), 50 for £599 (£11.98 each), 100 for £999 (£9.99 each). Credits are valid for 12 months from purchase.

Are staff logins limited?

No. Unlimited practice logins are included. Everyone in the organisation works in the same Self Assessment desk.

Is there a monthly subscription or taxpayer cap?

No monthly suite fee on the public credit packs, and no monthly taxpayer-cap subscription bands. You buy credits when you need filings.

Can I prepare returns before buying credits?

Yes. Register free, invite your team, and draft client returns with no card. Buy a credit pack when you are ready to submit.

Does it include MTD quarterly updates?

No. Year-end Self Assessment is included now. MTD quarterly updates for Income Tax are planned as a later add-on.

When should I stay on Capium or TaxCalc?

If you need CT600, iXBRL accounts, payroll or a full practice suite in the same login, stay on those products. Self Assessment Software is the SA desk only.
