CIS Tax Refunds and Allowable Expenses
Many CIS subcontractors have tax deducted from their payments throughout the year. When your Self Assessment tax return is prepared, your CIS deductions are taken into account when calculating your final tax position.
We can help you review your CIS deduction statements, income and allowable business expenses to prepare an accurate tax return and determine whether you have overpaid tax and may be due a refund.
Depending on your circumstances, allowable expenses may include tools, protective clothing, business travel, insurance, professional fees and other costs incurred wholly and exclusively for your business.
Frequently Asked Questions about CIS
Do CIS subcontractors need to complete a Self Assessment tax return?
Most self-employed CIS subcontractors need to complete a Self Assessment tax return each year. CIS deductions taken by contractors are payments towards your tax liability and need to be included when your final tax position is calculated.
Can I get a CIS tax refund?
You may be entitled to a tax refund if the CIS deductions taken from your payments are higher than your final tax liability. This depends on your income, allowable expenses, CIS deductions and individual tax circumstances.
What records should I keep as a CIS subcontractor?
You should keep records of your income, invoices, CIS deduction statements and business expenses, together with supporting receipts and other relevant documents.
What expenses can a CIS subcontractor claim?
Allowable expenses depend on your individual circumstances. They may include qualifying costs such as tools, protective clothing, business travel, insurance and professional fees where the relevant tax rules are met.
Can you help me register for CIS?
Yes. Alexis Finance Ltd can assist with CIS registration and explain the accounting and tax responsibilities involved in working as a self-employed subcontractor.
