Frequently asked questions
What specific tax reliefs can a specialist accountant help me claim as a doctor?
A specialist accountant will identify reliefs such as annual professional registration fees, indemnity insurance, medical equipment, and home office costs. They will also help with pension contributions and charitable donations, ensuring you maximise your tax efficiency. By keeping detailed records and using their knowledge of HMRC rules, they can reduce your tax bill legally and accurately.
How do I know if an accountant is properly qualified and regulated?
Look for membership in recognised professional bodies such as ACCA, ICAEW, or AAT. These organisations enforce strict standards of training, ethics, and continuing professional development. You can verify an accountant's credentials by checking the register on the relevant body's website or by asking the accountant directly. Choosing a regulated professional gives you confidence in their expertise and accountability.
What is the difference between a tax return and a Self Assessment?
A tax return is the official form you submit to HMRC, and Self Assessment is the system used to report your income and gains for the tax year. As a doctor, you may need to complete a Self Assessment tax return if you have untaxed income, such as locum work or private practice. An accountant will prepare and file this on your behalf, ensuring accuracy and timeliness.
Can an accountant help me with VAT if I run a private practice?
Yes, if your private practice turnover exceeds the VAT registration threshold, you must charge VAT on your services. An accountant will advise you on whether to register voluntarily, how to handle input tax on purchases, and how to complete VAT returns. They will also help you decide if the flat rate scheme or annual accounting scheme is suitable for your practice.
How often should I meet with my accountant to keep my finances on track?
It is advisable to have at least two meetings per year: one for tax planning before the end of the tax year and another to review your accounts after submission. However, you may need more frequent contact if your circumstances change, such as starting a new role or buying equipment. Many accountants offer ongoing support via email or phone, so you can ask questions as they arise.
What records do I need to keep for my accountant to prepare my accounts?
You should keep all records of income and expenses, including payslips, invoices, receipts for professional purchases, bank statements, and records of any benefits in kind. For private practice, keep a log of all fees received and any related costs. Your accountant will provide a checklist to ensure nothing is missed, making the process smoother and more accurate.
