    VTT+ Bookkeeping
    VT Accounts Prep
    FTAX Tax returns

    Thats my current combination and it works well. I have had a couple of demos for integrated sotware but then found out VT did a couple of things that would speed things up so think I'll be leaving it a while as I only have about 60 clients and money's tight

    I use Ftax as well. The form can sometimes feel a little 'clunky' but it does the job and the customer support is excellent.

    I think I have a discount code somewhere if you want to buy it.

    The other option I think is TaxCalc. This is more expensive than FTax but I think overall it gets a better rating.

    I would start off with FTax if I were you.

    I think the main difference is FTax is an intelligent PDF of the tax return - mostly, you need to know how to fill it in (which is not a bad thing!!).

    Other software such as Digita and I expect Tax calc, ask you a series of questions about the various areas and the tax return is magically populated with the right answers.

    OK - looked at both; Ftax has much more user friendly website in terms of explaining which programs do what. Taxcalc website was confusing!

    See precious little point buying software for the year to 5 April 2010 now; however I think I'll give FTax a go. At the moment I don't do enough to justify spending too much money.

    Jenni, would you be able to email me the code if you find it at some stage?

    Thanks all for advice!
