NURSING AND CARE AGENCY VAT EXEMPTION ADVICE AND ASSISTANCE
It is easy for business owners and directors to bury their head in the sand should they have an encounter with HMRC’s investigations team.
The key thing to keep in mind is that you are not alone in having to deal with the matter and there are experts like ourselves available with years of experience in supporting and advising businesses of all different shapes and sizes.
Unlike other expert’s VAT Advisory Services are specialists in advising care/nursing agencies on VAT exemption and we have a very good relationship with HMRC as we deal with them on a daily.
There is currently a rapidly growing need for VAT advice and assistance in the nursing and care supply industry, due to HMRC’S recent aggressive stance towards collection of VAT from care firms.
HMRC’s mandate in this specific area dictates that there is over one half billion pounds of unassessed VAT due to the treasury, which, nursing/care agencies have failed to account for/and or incorrectly accounted for on the value of their supplies of staff.
HMRCS view is that if you are a nursing or care agency and you have not applied the ‘nursing agencies concession’ then VAT is due on all your supplies of staff for a retrospective period of up to 4 years, which in our experience with clients can amount to the hundreds of thousands or multiple millions of pounds. An amount which no medium to small enterprise can reasonably be expected to pay on demand, thus the very real prospect of bankruptcy and or liquidation looms.
We have worked with hundreds of clients advising that all nursing and care agencies supplying registered nurses, unregistered nurses working under the supervision of registered nurses or nursing auxiliaries, where the services provided form part of patient medical care, such as administering drugs or taking blood pressures, are (100%) exempted welfare services.
Our principal legal Director, is a qualified Lawyer, with over 8 years’, in house experience working, within care agencies and has amassed vast knowledge over many years directly engaged with HMRC investigations in to the VAT returns of care firms, with unparalleled success.
Our organisation now seeks to provide nationwide specialist VAT exemption services to those care/nursing agencies in need of assistance.
