CONTRACTORS 

These are businesses or individuals who hire subcontractors and need to register, verify, and make the right deductions as well as reporting it properly to HMRC. 
 
As a contractor, you have specific legal responsibilities under CIS — including... 
 
Verifying your subcontractors with HMRC 
Deducting and recording CIS tax correctly 
Filing monthly CIS returns by the 19th of each month 
Providing payment and deduction statements to subcontractors 
Keeping accurate records for at least 3 years 

SUBCONTRACTORS 

Individuals or companies who want to make sure they’re getting paid correctly and reclaiming what they’re owed.. 
 
If you're a subcontractors, it's likely that 20-30% of your income is being deducted at the source. We can help you... 
 
Reclaim CIS tax through your Self Assessment or Limited Company tax return 
Ensure you’re registered at the correct rate (to avoid the 30% default deduction) 
Identify tax-deductible expenses to reduce your overall bill 
File accurate, timely returns so you never miss out
