Worth knowing

Rules that come up in this work

The VAT registration threshold

The £90,000 VAT threshold is measured over any twelve consecutive months, which is why a strong quarter can tip a business over unexpectedly. Registration must follow within thirty days of the end of the month the threshold was crossed. Below the threshold, voluntary registration is worth considering when customers are VAT-registered businesses and costs carry VAT.

Corporation Tax rates and marginal relief

Corporation Tax is not a flat rate. Profits to £50,000 pay 19%, profits above £250,000 pay 25%, and the band between is taxed at an effective marginal rate of 26.5% through the marginal relief mechanism. Associated companies share the thresholds, which catches directors who own more than one company and is the most common cause of underpaid tax in owner-managed groups.

Salary versus dividends

Paying yourself from a company involves two routes with different tax treatment. Salary through payroll is a company expense and builds a National Insurance record; dividends come from post-tax profit at lower personal rates. Undocumented drawings that are neither become director's loans, with a 35.75% section 455 charge if not repaid within nine months of the year end.

Director's loan accounts

Money taken from a company has to be something: salary, dividend, expense reimbursement or loan. If it is a loan and remains outstanding nine months after the year end, the company pays tax at the dividend higher rate on it until it is repaid. Clearing the balance with a properly declared dividend before the deadline, where reserves allow, is routine year-end work.

The Self Assessment calendar

The tax year runs from 6 April to 5 April. Anyone new to Self Assessment must register by 5 October after the end of the tax year in which their untaxed income began. The online return and the balancing payment are due by 31 January, with a second payment on account on 31 July where they apply. Paper returns have an earlier deadline of 31 October and are rarely sensible.

Payments on account

If your Self Assessment bill exceeds £1,000 and less than 80% of your tax was collected at source, HMRC asks for two advance payments towards the following year, each half of the current bill, due 31 January and 31 July. The first year this happens the January payment is effectively one and a half times the bill. We model it in advance and show you how to reduce the payments if income is falling.

Late filing penalties

Penalties are the clearest reason to work to deadlines. A Self Assessment return one day late costs £100 regardless of whether any tax is due; three months late adds £10 a day. Late company accounts start at £150 and reach £1,500, and double if the previous year was also late. None of this is negotiable afterwards except through a narrow reasonable-excuse appeal.

Questions

CIS Tax Returns questions from Northallerton

What is gross payment status and can I get it?

Gross status means contractors pay you in full with no deduction; you pay your tax through Self Assessment or Corporation Tax instead. You need a construction turnover of at least £30,000 (sole trader) or £30,000 per director for companies, a clean compliance record for the previous 12 months and a UK bank account. Our £199 service prepares and submits the application.

How does CIS work for a limited company subcontractor?

Deductions suffered by a company are not reclaimed through Self Assessment. They are offset against the company's own PAYE and CIS liabilities each month through the Employer Payment Summary, and any excess at the year end is reclaimed from HMRC in writing. The £49 CIS plus payroll bundle handles this monthly.

How does the VAT reverse charge affect CIS work?

Since March 2021, where both parties are VAT and CIS registered and the supply is within the scheme, the subcontractor does not charge VAT; the contractor accounts for it on their own return. The invoice must state that the reverse charge applies. We check your sales and purchase invoices for this on every return.

Do I need to register for CIS?

Subcontractors should register so deductions are 20% rather than 30%; registration is free with HMRC or £49 through our service with your UTR sorted at the same time. Contractors must register before paying their first subcontractor. If you are both, both registrations are needed; our dual package is £99.

What does the £149 subcontractor return include?

Your full Self Assessment with the self-employment pages, every CIS deduction statement reconciled to your income, allowable expenses claimed, the refund calculated and the return filed. We then track the repayment with HMRC, which usually arrives within two to six weeks of filing in the quieter months.

How much CIS refund can I expect?

It depends on your profit and expenses. Deductions are 20% of the labour element of your invoices; tax is only due on profit after expenses and the £12,570 personal allowance, with Class 4 National Insurance on top. Many subcontractors earning under £35,000 get back several thousand pounds. We give you the figure before filing.
