Andica Self Assessment
What Andica Self Assessment is
Andica Self Assessment helps individual taxpayers and professionals prepare Self Assessment returns, calculate tax, and submit returns to HMRC. It supports self-employment and rental income and includes SA100 supplementary forms for employment, self-employment, partnerships, UK property, foreign income, trusts, capital gains, residence, and tax calculations. The Personal edition handles one or five taxpayers from one installation. The Professional edition is aimed at accountants, tax consultants, bookkeepers, and other client-return specialists, with taxpayer bands and an optional multi-user feature. Built-in File By Internet submits through the Government Gateway after HMRC registration. Andica says filing data travels directly from the user’s computer to HMRC with 128-bit encryption. The software calculates tax, updates SA110, and previews or prints SA302 and return reports. Prior-year Andica files can supply imported static data. Windows desktop support covers Windows 10 and 11, while a cloud edition works across platforms. Cloud SA100 costs £22 a year, billed excluding VAT.
