CIS Tax Refunds for Subcontractors
Paid too much tax under CIS?
We’ll sort your Self-Assessment, claim your refund
and get your money back fast.
If you work in construction under CIS, there’s a good chance you’ve paid more tax than you needed to.
Here’s how we help you get it back, fast and stress-free:
1
We Check Your CIS Deductions
We review your CIS statements to see how much tax you’ve already paid. Then we check what you should have paid, and work out the refund.
2
We Check Your Expenses
You can claim for tools, workwear, travel, mileage and more. We’ll make sure you don’t miss anything you’re allowed to claim.
3
We Get You Your Refund
We validate and then submit your Self-Assessment to HMRC, claim your refund, and keep you updated all the way through.
Why You Need to File
Your contractor takes 20–30% tax off your pay — often more than you actually owe. Even though tax is already taken off your pay under CIS, you still need to file a Self-Assessment tax return.
And in most cases, you’re due a refund — but you won’t get it unless you claim it.
