Worth knowing
Rules that come up in this work
Switching accountants
Changing accountant is simpler than most people fear. You authorise the new firm, which writes to the old one for professional clearance and your records; the outgoing accountant must hand over your own documents and usually does within two weeks. The new firm registers as your agent with HMRC and picks up the next filing. There is no need to wait for a year end.
Closing a company
Striking off a company is cheap but must be done in order: stop trading, file the final accounts and CT600, pay the tax, close VAT and PAYE, distribute the remaining assets, close the bank account, then apply. Anything left in the company at dissolution passes to the Crown. Distributions up to £25,000 are taxed as capital gains; above that a formal liquidation is usually needed to keep capital treatment.
Employer National Insurance
Since April 2025 employer National Insurance has been 15% on earnings above a £5,000 secondary threshold, a substantial increase for small employers. The Employment Allowance rose to £10,500 at the same time to soften it for the smallest businesses. Directors deciding their own salary weigh this cost against the Corporation Tax deduction a salary provides.
Workplace pensions and auto-enrolment
Auto-enrolment duties begin the day you take on your first employee, not when the Pensions Regulator writes to you. Eligible staff must be enrolled, contributions paid every pay period and re-enrolment carried out every three years. Director-only companies without employment contracts are usually exempt. Fines for non-compliance are fixed and escalating.
Dormant companies
Companies formed to protect a name or hold a future business are dormant but not exempt: Companies House still expects dormant accounts within nine months of the year end and a confirmation statement annually with its £50 fee, and HMRC must be told the company is dormant or it will demand Corporation Tax returns. The filings are short, but the penalties for missing them are the same as for a trading company.
The trading and property allowances
Not every small income needs a tax return. The trading allowance exempts the first £1,000 of self-employment or casual income and the property allowance does the same for rental income, each measured on gross receipts. They cannot be combined with rent-a-room relief on the same income, and claiming the allowance means giving up the expense deduction for that source.
Crypto records and reporting
HMRC treats cryptoassets as property. Swapping one token for another, spending crypto or gifting it are all disposals for Capital Gains Tax, and staking and lending rewards are income. Gains are computed under pooling rules with same-day and 30-day matching. From 2026 HMRC receives data from exchanges worldwide under the Cryptoasset Reporting Framework, so unreported activity is increasingly visible.
Questions
Locum Accountants questions from Stockley Park
What is the annual-only option?
For £199 we prepare your Self Assessment from the records you keep yourself, including the reconciliation of your engagement income and pension contributions. It suits locums with a small number of regular engagements who are organised. If records are incomplete, the monthly package is usually better value.
Do locum pharmacists and dentists have the same pension issues?
Dental associates and performers pension their NHS earnings through the dental pension arrangements with annual reconciliation statements; locum pharmacists generally have no NHS pension on locum income. Each profession has its own regime and we handle the specific paperwork for yours.
Should a locum work through a limited company?
It depends on the work. GP locum income is pensionable in the NHS scheme only when earned as an individual, so incorporating loses pension accrual on that income. Private work and some agency work suit a company better. Off-payroll rules apply to engagements with NHS bodies through your company. We run the comparison for your mix of work.
How does the NHS pension work for a GP locum?
Locum GPs pension their income through Locum Forms A and B, submitted to the pensions agency within ten weeks of the work, with employee contributions deducted and employer contributions paid by the practice or ICB. A Type 2 certificate reconciles the year. Missing the ten-week window loses the pension on that income. We track it.
What does the £69 sole trader locum package include?
Monthly bookkeeping of all engagement income and expenses, reconciliation of pay statements and remittance advices, NHS pension contribution tracking, a monthly summary with the tax accruing, your Self Assessment with the self-employment and any employment pages prepared and filed, and payments on account calculated.
What does the £95 company package include?
Monthly bookkeeping, director payroll with RTI submissions, dividend paperwork, statutory accounts and CT600 filed, the confirmation statement filed (Companies House £50 fee separate), and deadline tracking. Your personal Self Assessment is added at the published £129 where needed, often necessary because of NHS employment income.
Do you have an office in Stockley Park?
No. IGI Accounting is an online-only firm. We serve Stockley Park and every other UK postcode remotely, with records sent by WhatsApp or email and everything filed electronically. The absence of local premises is why the fee for locum accountants is the same in Stockley Park as anywhere else in the country, and why there is nothing to visit and nothing to print.
Is locum accountants in Stockley Park really the same price as elsewhere?
Yes. The fee published on this page is what a client in Stockley Park pays and what a client in any other part of England pays. It is confirmed in writing before work starts and the invoice matches the quote. Where a higher package applies because your situation is more complex, we say so at the quote stage, never afterwards.
