Payroll & CIS for Kettering: the basics
Employing people in Kettering means Real Time Information submissions to HMRC on or before every pay day, workplace pension duties and year-end forms. We run the payroll, send payslips, file the submissions and tell you what to pay HMRC and the pension provider each month.
Businesses in England follow UK-wide rules for Income Tax, National Insurance, VAT and Corporation Tax, with Stamp Duty Land Tax applying to property purchases. Local business rates are set and collected by the local authority.

Payroll & CIS questions
Answers for Kettering clients. Your accountant can go into detail for your situation.
Real Time Information requires a Full Payment Submission to HMRC each time you pay staff, on or before pay day. We file it as part of running your payroll, so nothing is missed.
Yes, if they are aged 22 to State Pension age and earn over £10,000 a year you must enrol them. Even if nobody qualifies you must declare compliance to The Pensions Regulator. We handle both.
Contractors in construction must verify subcontractors with HMRC, deduct tax from their payments (usually 20%) and file a monthly CIS return by the 19th. Subcontractors reclaim the deductions through their own tax return, which we also prepare.

Making Tax Digital requires digital record keeping and software filing. It already applies to VAT-registered businesses and is being extended to Income Tax Self Assessment for sole traders and landlords in stages. The software in your plan meets the requirements.
Yes, at any point in the year. We write to your current accountant for professional clearance and your records, and there is no charge for switching.
