Robyn Milstead asked an expert<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With Making Tax Digital for Income Tax Self Assessment (MTD IT) on the horizon, many accountants and tax advisers are understandably nervous. Questions are flying around about client approvals, submission responsibilities and \u2013 crucially \u2013 how all this ties into Professional Indemnity (PI) insurance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I had the privilege of chatting through my own concerns with Sam Cox of Qdos Insurance, to explore what best practice really looks like in this new compliance landscape \u2014 and how PI cover fits into it all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the reasons I spoke to Sam was because insurers haven\u2019t had much to say about MTD IT so far. Sam, however, was able to reassure me that that\u2019s not a sign they\u2019re ignoring it \u2013 it\u2019s just how they operate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Insurers tend to be reactive, not proactive.

It\u2019s a compliance exercise, not an advice-driven one. Even so this still feels like a scary new world\u2026 but there are some points from our conversation which I hope will elevate some of the fears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Download the full article below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div data-wp-interactive=\"core\/file\" class=\"wp-block-file\"><object data-wp-bind--hidden=\"!state.hasPdfPreview\" hidden class=\"wp-block-file__embed\" data=\"https:\/\/taxinvestigation.co\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/MTD-IT-by-Robyn-Milstead-.pdf\" type=\"application\/pdf\" style=\"width:100%;height:600px\" aria-label=\"Embed of MTD IT by Robyn Milstead.\"><\/object><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-9a727ca9-6be8-4e19-8195-1dbee22cc042\" href=\"https:\/\/taxinvestigation.co\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/MTD-IT-by-Robyn-Milstead-.pdf\">MTD IT by Robyn Milstead<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/taxinvestigation.co\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/MTD-IT-by-Robyn-Milstead-.pdf\" class=\"wp-block-file__button wp-element-button\" download aria-describedby=\"wp-block-file--media-9a727ca9-6be8-4e19-8195-1dbee22cc042\">Download<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What will best practice around PI insurance look like when Making Tax Digital for Income Tax is introduced?
