To understand how Locum Tenens can work to your advantage, start here:

Businesses can take all sorts of “ordinary and necessary” tax deductions (including for jets, boats and limousines) and apply "tax credits" to reduce their taxes. Corporations use a separate tax system. Corporations hire lobbyists, buy political influence and get unbelievable tax benefits.  The result is that corporations pay less than 2% of their total income in federal income taxes.

Individuals, on the other hand, can take very limited deductions and must pay a substantial portion of their income in taxes.

As a Locums, you can take advantage of both tax systems by filing a separate S Corporation return for your Locums income and expenses in addition to your individual income tax return.

Granted, Locums work isn’t the best fit for everyone: It tends to involve extensive travel. That said, if you you don’t mind travel you can work a “7-on-7-off” shift or work 15% fewer shifts and end up with the same after-tax income as a full-time job.
