How will having a lower income from sessional work affect my tax return this year?

How will having a lower income from sessional work affect my tax return this year?

I have previously written about the SEISS (self-employed income support scheme) which provided funding for individuals who were self-employed in 18-19 and correctly submitted a tax return.

However, the scheme will have excluded a lot of GP locums if they were not self-employed during or before the 2018-19 tax year.

Hopefully those entitled to claim for the first tranche will have considered if anything is available for the second. But that is unlikely to be the case if there was work available from 14 July.

What other help is there?

"I fell into a salaried role post-CCT, so faced with an unexpected relocation to a completely new area of the country the thought of GP locuming was incredibly daunting.

The assistance I have received from NASGP has been invaluable. I have received excellent and patient admin support when setting up my LocumDeck account. I have enjoyed the monthly chambers meetings I have attended: this made locuming feel far less isolating.

I have easily found plentiful work and am grateful for the invoicing and pension forms being taken care of – this gives me time to focus on the clinical work or make the most of precious days off.

With the support of NASGP Locum Chambers I have filled my diary working in a variety of practices in my new area, and have now joined one practice I enjoyed locuming at on a salaried basis while I continue to do some locum work on top using LocumDeck."
