I highly recommend Imran to anyone looking for a reliable and knowledgeable accountant. He helped me sort out a very complicated backlog of accounts and prepared my overdue tax returns with professionalism and attention to detail. Throughout the process, he was incredibly patient, took the time to answer all of my questions, and explained everything clearly. He guided me through each step and helped rectify issues that had built up over time, making what felt like an overwhelming situation much more manageable. I'm very pleased with the service I've received and truly appreciate his support. If you need help with your accounts or taxes, I would highly recommend Imran.

I had a positive experience with Accotax. The work was completed promptly, my tax return was successfully filed, and I received a refund of overpaid tax. I found the cooperation efficient and helpful. Special thanks to Muhammad Saifullah for his assistance.

We worked with a few different accountants before finally settling with Accotax, and we’re really glad we did. Their team is great. Abdul is responsive and easy to reach whenever I have a question, which makes a big difference. They take the time to understand how our business works and what our needs are. They are very knowledgeable, and when they don’t have the answer straight away, they take the time to look into it and get back to us quickly. Anum, who looks after our account on a day-to-day basis, including reconciling invoices and preparing the annual accounts, is amazing. She is professional, efficient, and follows the processes we have put in place together. She's also very quickin getting back to us whenever needed. We’re very happy to work with her and hope to continue doing so for as long as possible. Overall, Accotax has made our accounting experience much smoother and easier. We see them as a long-term partner as our business continues to grow. I would 100% recommend them.

I have really impressed to date with all dealings with Accotax highly enough. From day one, they've made what can often be a complicated and stressful part of running a business feel straightforward and hassle-free. A special mention has to go to Anum, who has been friendly, incredibly responsive, and genuinely cares about providing the best possible service. No question is ever too much trouble, and she consistently goes above and beyond to make sure everything is dealt with efficiently. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend you to anyone looking for an accountant they can genuinely trust.

FAQs about Accountants for Locum Midwife

Do locum midwives really need an accountant?

As a locum midwife, you are not legally required to hire an accountant in every situation. However, locum income can become complicated when you work for multiple agencies. This is because you have different income streams to manage. Hiring specialist accountants for locum midwives means you can keep your records accurate. Also, it makes tax reporting much easier.

What expenses can a locum midwife claim?

The expenses you can claim depend on your employment status and working arrangements. Costs that are incurred wholly and exclusively for business purposes may be allowable for self-employed professionals. These costs include certain professional fees, indemnity insurance, business-use equipment, accountancy fees and other allowable expenses, depending on your circumstances. As expert accountants for locum midwives, we review your circumstances. We ensure you claim all eligible allowable expenses while remaining fully compliant with HMRC requirements.

How does IR35 affect my income as a healthcare locum?

IR35 may apply if you provide your services through your own limited company or another intermediary. Where IR35 applies, the fee-payer is generally responsible for deducting the correct tax and National Insurance. As specialist accountants for locum midwives, we review your contracts carefully. This way, we make sure that you pay the correct amount of tax based on your true working status.

Can CruseBurke help if I work as both an NHS midwife and a locum?

Yes. As expert accountants for locum midwives, we can review both sources of income. We make sure that correct details are included when dealing with your tax affairs.

Do I need a limited company or should I register as a sole trader?

The right choice depends on your specific earnings and your future goals. It also depends on the agencies you work with. Sole trader status involves less paperwork, which is why that route often seems more appropriate to many. A limited company can be more tax efficient in some circumstances, depending on your income, expenses, working arrangements and IR35 status. Professional advice should always be taken before incorporating. As experienced accountants for locum midwives, we calculate both scenarios for you. Then we suggest which route actually saves you money.
