Ftax for Individuals
What Ftax for Individuals is
Ftax for Individuals prepares and submits UK Self Assessment and Individual Trust and Estate tax returns online to HMRC. Its forms calculate tax liability and explain the calculation. Totals are added while forms are completed, and yellow highlights identify errors or omissions. Work can be saved and submitted as new or amended returns, with a test submission facility available. Submission data is recorded and archived automatically for account access later. SA100 can import information from Ftax Cashbook, an Ftax SA800 form or the previous year's tax form. The Individual SA100 includes sections such as Ministers of Religion, Capital Gains Summary and Residence, but excludes Self Employment, Partnership and UK Property sections. SA900 includes UK Property, Capital Gains and Non-Residence sections. Ftax supports investment income, but not self-employment or rental income. It runs on web, Windows, macOS and iOS, with mobile access through web and mobile. Plans start at £19.50 per month plus VAT, and there is no free plan.
Who it suits
It suits individuals preparing UK tax returns that include investment income. Self-employed people, partners, landlords and users completing UK Property are directed to Ftax for Businesses instead.
