Muhammad was professional, responsive and genuinely helpful from start to finish. It was clear that he cared about providing a great service and making sure everything was handled properly. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for someone reliable, efficient and professional.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I worked with Accotx on a HMRC reclaim and overall, they did ultimately deliver on their promise, which I appreciate. The process did take longer than any of us expected, partly due to external delays with the tax authorities, and partly because there were some hiccups in communication and follow-up. However, despite those challenges, they stayed professional and stuck to the original agreed terms. If you’re considering using them, be prepared to stay in regular contact to keep things moving along. They are absolutely capable, have the expertise and willing to work with you, and overall  improving their services over time. I would certainly return for any future needs.

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.
