That’s a promise!

  3. What you must do as a CIS contractor? • As a contractor, you need to enroll yourself under the scheme, ensure whether your subcontractors are registered with HMRC, paying your subcontractors and putting forward the monthly CIS Returns. • Register yourself as a contractor if: • You pay subcontractors for construction work • Your business is not directly involved in construction work but you spend well above than £1 million a year on construction work in a 3-year period. • You may be a sole trader or run a partnership or own a limited company. • We’ll take care of all the rules you must follow being a contractor like filing monthly returns, and safe keeping CIS records, making deductions from subcontractor’s payments for HMRC, business changes, etc.

  4. What you must do as a CIS subcontractor? • As a subcontractor, it is a must for you to register with HM Revenues & Customs (HMRC). You can then get your tax slashed from your earnings as per the rate on your status. • You need to register for CIS if you work for a contractor and is: • Self-employed • Limited Company owner • Runs a partnership business • A contractor makes 20% cut from your payments and passes it to HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC). These pay cuts count as advance payments for your tax and National Insurance bill. • In case you do not register for CIS, contractors must cut 30% from your payments. You can also apply for Gross Payment Status if you don’t feel like making advance payments.
