CIS Workers

About CIS Workers

Helping to get your returns submitted at an affordable fixed cost

If you work in the Construction Industry and sub-contract under the Construction Industry Scheme (CIS) scheme you could have suffered tax deduction from your income at either 20% or 30%. You will have to file a self-assessment return with HM Revenue and Customs by the 31st January following the tax year-end, and any further tax and national insurance payments must also be made on this date. It is common for many workers under the CIS scheme to be entitled to refunds of overpaid tax. Your self-assessment return can be electronically sent as soon as you have all your documents ready after the tax year end (5th April). CIS workers are treated as sole-traders and as such will be issued automatic fines for late self-assessment returns, and subsequent fines and interest thereafter, even if your tax has been deducted through this scheme.

We can meet you, at your convenience to discuss your specific needs and offer an accountancy package to suit you. We believe that accountancy should be affordable, and will always quote a fixed price for the accountancy package we discuss, giving you peace of mind about the costs involved. After we have completed your work we will meet you and present it to you, fully discussing all the details involved in a manner that you can understand.

The service that we offer is a year round accountancy service. We pride ourselves in the communications we have with our clients, always making our clients aware of deadlines and any other matter particular to them individually. We will explain everything to you in a way that you can understand. We make ourselves readily available to all our clients for advice, when they need it, on all matters concerning them.

Making tax digital for income tax is planned to come into effect from April 2026 for the sole-traders and landlords with a qualifying income over £50,000. Sole-traders and landlords with a qualifying income over £30,000 would be required to join in April 2027. We use software that is readily compliant and can help you through this transition.

Some of the accountancy services we can help you with are:

• Completing your year-end accounts and self-assessment returns,
• Initiating any repayments of overpaid tax,
• Calculating any amount of tax and national insurance due,
