Catford Bridge locum accountants FAQs
Sole trader or limited company for locum work?
It depends on your day rate, session volume and pension priorities — NHS pension access often argues for sole-trader GP work, while non-pensionable and private work can favour a company. We'll model your actual mix rather than give a generic answer.
What expenses can locums claim?
Professional indemnity, GMC/GDC/GPhC registration, royal college fees, courses and CPD, travel between temporary workplaces, and equipment. The travel rules around 'temporary workplace' are nuanced — claiming them correctly is worth real money.
Can you help with NHS pension annual allowance issues?
We calculate your position, flag likely annual allowance charges and prepare the Self Assessment entries (including scheme pays elections). For complex cases we'll say when an IFA should be involved — honestly, and before you spend money.
Do I need to visit an office in Catford Bridge?
No — there's nothing to visit and nothing to print. We're an online firm: records go through our secure portal or WhatsApp, and everything is filed electronically. It works the same whether you're in Catford Bridge or anywhere else in South East London.
I searched "locum accounting near me" — is this service really local to Catford Bridge?
Catford Bridge is fully covered, yes. The work is done online, which in practice means more local than an office: same-day replies instead of appointment slots, and the same published fixed fee whether you're in Catford Bridge town centre or the edge of South East London. If you'd rather talk it through first, WhatsApp us — a real person answers.
Who will actually handle my locum accounting?
Bohzo Accountants — a trading name of Bohzo Ltd, a registered UK company (No. 15031604). You get a named contact, a fixed fee in writing, and nothing is filed until you've reviewed and approved it.
How do your fixed fees work?
You tell us your situation, we quote one fixed price in writing before any work starts, and that price never changes mid-job. If your case is unusually complex we'll say so up front and agree a different fixed price — but the fee is always agreed before we begin, never after.
The short version of the rules that matter
Compare accountants on the things that bite later: is the fee fixed and written down, what exactly is included, who does the work, how fast do they answer in January. Proximity to Catford Bridge stopped being the differentiator the day filings went electronic.
If your last Self Assessment bill was over £1,000, HMRC usually asks for next year's tax in advance — half on 31 January, half on 31 July. It's the number-one cause of "why is my bill double?" calls, and it's manageable: if your income has dropped, the payments can be reduced with a claim.
Filing early doesn't mean paying early: submit a return in May and the tax is still not due until the usual dates. Early filing buys certainty, refund speed and time to arrange payment — it costs nothing.
Self Assessment lateness is priced in stages: £100 immediately, daily £10 penalties after three months (up to £900), then percentage-based charges at six and twelve months — all separate from interest on unpaid tax. The curve is designed to reward filing sooner, whatever the state of your records.
First-year traders around Catford Bridge tend to make the same three mistakes: registering late, mixing business and personal spending in one account, and saving nothing for the first tax bill. All three are avoidable in an afternoon of setup.
Good records aren't about neatness — they're about money: claims you can evidence, VAT you can reclaim, and an accountant who spends billable time on advice rather than sorting. Bank feeds plus a receipts app gets most small businesses to "tidy" in minutes a week.
UK residential property sales have their own regime: report and pay within 60 days of completion, separately from Self Assessment. Other gains report annually. Mixing up the two timetables is a common and expensive mistake.
The trading allowance means up to £1,000 of gross side income per year can be tax-free with no return needed. Above that, registration and reporting kick in — and platforms now report seller data to HMRC, so "under the radar" isn't a strategy any more.
General guidance, not personal advice — thresholds and dates change. For advice on your own position in Catford Bridge, message us and we'll answer against your actual numbers.
