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.

Key Accounting Challenges Faced by Nurses

Nursing pay is complicated in ways most people outside the profession never realise. This is because if one month you are on the NHS payroll, the next month you can pick up agency shifts too. And somewhere in between, there is a locum contract; different income sources can create unexpected tax complications if they are not reported correctly. It’s no wonder so many nurses end up either overpaying tax or getting a letter demanding money they didn’t know they owed.

As expert accountants for nurses, we help you manage all these challenges:

Confusing or incorrect tax codes across multiple jobs

Missed expense claims for uniforms and equipment

IR35 considerations where locum nurses provide services through limited companies or intermediaries.

Late or incorrect self-assessment submissions

Overpayment of tax due to poor record keeping

Difficulty tracking mileage between multiple placements

Uncertainty around student loan repayment thresholds

FAQs about Accountants for Nurses

Do I need an accountant if I'm employed as a nurse?

Many employed nurses benefit from having specialist accountants for nurses, especially if they claim work expenses and receive income from different sources. Also, if you want to make sure that you are paying the correct amount of tax, it is highly recommended to have specialist accountants for nurses by your side.

Can I claim tax relief on my nursing union fees and registration costs?

Absolutely. You can claim tax relief on these essential professional outgoings. HMRC allows nursing staff to deduct the cost of annual Nursing and Midwifery Council registration fees. You can also deduct your Royal College of Nursing subscriptions from your taxable income. Our expert accountants for nurses will calculate these professional fees alongside your uniform laundry allowance. This helps you secure a substantial tax rebate.

Can CruseBurke help if I work as a locum nurse?

Absolutely. Our specialist accountants for locum nurses work across different contracts or agencies. We help you prepare accurate tax returns and manage your income efficiently.

I have both NHS and private income. Can you help?

Yes. Many healthcare professionals have more than one income source. Our accountants for nurses regularly help clients manage mixed income. At CruseBurke, we help you keep accurate records and meet all tax obligations.

Do I need to file a Self-Assessment return if I only do extra bank shifts?

If your extra bank shifts are processed through standard PAYE and if all your income is taxed correctly through PAYE, you might not need a tax return. However, if you earn untaxed income or your total earnings if you receive untaxed income or HMRC requires you to complete a Self Assessment return. As expert accountants for locum nurses, we will evaluate your total income sources. This helps us to determine your legal obligations and prevent HMRC fines.
