For accountants & financial advisers (IFAs)

Your public-sector clients, decision-ready before the first meeting.

Remedy is the intake, evidence and annual allowance workspace for firms serving public-sector clients: the NHS, teaching, the police, the fire service, the armed forces, the civil service, the judiciary and local government. Clients share their statements and payslips with your practice, and you work from one list of who needs you: the stage, the charge, the next deadline and the papers for each.

Works alongside the tax software you file from. List prices are below, including VAT.

From the first invitation to your sign-off

The intake problem

The hard part isn't the calculation. It's the chase.

Public-sector clients arrive with missing pension evidence and no idea what to send. You spend hours gathering payslips, pension statements and scheme benefit statements (for example a Total Reward Statement, or TRS, for NHS clients) before you can begin, and the record you finally get is often wrong. Remedy does all of that first.

What you get

A clean client, ready to work

Branded intake

Invite a client by email, or send your practice's consent link from your own system. They get a free account under your firm's brand, choose what you can see, and upload their payslips and pension statements once.

Figures from their statements

The annual allowance, taper and carry-forward are worked from the pension savings statement and payslips the client shares, for whichever public service scheme they are in. A year we have not accuracy-checked is labelled as a live working for you to sense-check.

One list of who needs you

Every client has one stage and a next deadline: 31 January for Self Assessment, 31 July for a Scheme Pays election. Filter the whole practice to what is overdue, due in 30 days, ready to review or ready to file, and chase one client or several for exactly what is missing.

Papers for your file

The pack, with every figure sourced back to the file it came from, plus a Self Assessment working paper and, when the charge is confirmed, a Scheme Pays paper. It says whether the election is mandatory, how much the scheme can be required to pay, and which administrator's form to use for that scheme and nation: SPE2 only for NHS England & Wales. A year not yet checked is labelled as a live working for you to sense-check. We do not file at HMRC.

Into your tax software

Download the pension savings tax charge figures as a CSV, one row per client with your own client reference beside it, to key into the software you already file from. Or pull them with a scoped API key, and have signed webhooks tell your own systems when a client connects, moves stage or has a filing recorded.

Consent, security and audit

Every step logged, with the client's consent recorded. Require two-factor sign-in for the whole practice, and let staff see only the clients assigned to them. Cover for you and for them if HMRC ever asks.

    With Remedy

    Stay in your practice system and tax software. We do not file at HMRC

Clients join by consent: each creates a free account and chooses what your firm can see, so your book comes across client by client rather than as an import. There is no direct connector to TaxCalc, IRIS, CCH or Digita yet; the CSV and the API are the bridge. Tax a scheme has agreed to pay under Scheme Pays, and its Pension Scheme Tax Reference, come from the scheme.

For accountants

Start on the work, not the admin

Clients arrive reconciled and decision-ready. Whether your accountancy fee is reclaimable by the client depends on their scheme: the NHS reimburses up to £1,000 including VAT, several schemes reimburse on a discretionary basis, and some cover advice only. The breakdown below shows what applies.

For financial advisers

Advise on a clean picture

You give regulated advice on the remedy choice and the pension decisions, on figures that are already gathered and checked. That advice is often reclaimable by the client: the NHS caps it at £500 including VAT, and most other schemes reimburse advice on a capped or discretionary basis. The breakdown below shows what applies.

Reclaiming your fee

What your client can claim back, by scheme

Fee recovery is McCloud remedy compensation, and it varies by scheme. Only the NHS publishes fixed caps; several schemes reimburse on a discretionary basis, and the LGPS has no route at all. We name the published route. We do not submit the claim.

NHS
Up to £1,000 including VAT for accountancy and £500 including VAT for advice.
Teachers'
Up to £500 for advice; no separate accountancy allowance published.
Civil Service
£500 for tax-position advice, plus reasonable HMRC-resubmission costs (uncapped, discretionary).
Armed Forces
Discretionary, no cap; professional fees where expert advice was needed.
Police
Discretionary, no cap; accountancy and adviser fees for complex cases.
Firefighters'
Discretionary, no cap; reasonable fees, decided per Fire and Rescue Authority.
Judicial
£500 plus VAT for tax-registration-change advice only; no accountancy allowance.
Local Government (LGPS)
No fee-reimbursement scheme.

This is McCloud remedy compensation for remedy work, not ordinary annual-allowance advice. Time limits differ by scheme: NHS England and Wales, within 12 months of the member’s Remediable Pension Savings Statement or first remediable service statement; police, typically within six months of the member’s choice.

A stream of pre-qualified cases

Public-sector professionals run their free check on Remedy. After a specialist has checked the pack, they invite you into a consented workspace — or you send them a consent link. An introduction without consent is not access.
