To create a Client Questionnaire, follow these instructions:

Please note: you should ensure MS Word is not already open.

4. Click on Continue through to Criteria. 
5. Select the tax year from the drop-down menu.
6. Tick one or more of the following as required:
   • ​​Include checklist of possible income, outgoing and reliefs – this will list other possible income sources, as a reminder to your clients.
   • Show my practice details in the footer of each questionnaire – this will add your contact details, email, phone number and address as a footer.
   • Show previous year values from wizards/worksheets – this shows the previous year’s amounts, again as a reminder/aid to the client.
7. ​Select one of the following:
