    Cool Locums needing tax info??

    Hi there,

    Having been in the pharmacy field for well over a decade, know that you that you certainly don't need an accountant charging you £800+ for annual completion of accounts and other tads of info.

    Why are locums so dizzy? My accountant charges me £150, so long as I maintain my paperwork.

    As for companies such as Shipley Tax Consultants et al , i'll tell them where to go!

    Re: Locums needing tax info??

    I am just starting out as a locum so I'm not really sure what paperwork needs to be maintained or what things are tax deductible. My plan was to keep a big diary with everywhere I have worked (including agreed rate, number of hours, any expenses claimed etc) and keep receipts of anything I buy/pay for that is for work purposes such as indemnity insurance, registration fees - not sure if I can put down other stuff like work clothes, lunch, car costs etc but at least if I keep all the receipts I can ask the tax office and claim if allowed. Is there any other records I need to keep or paperwork that needs doing? I am going to register as self-employed tomorrow so hopefully they will tell me if I need to do anything different....?
