by Daniel at Taxfile.

The CIS Contractor's Monthly Return is a mandatory requirement for contractors operating within the Construction Industry Scheme (CIS). It acts as a mechanism for contractors to disclose to HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) payments issued to subcontractors and the corresponding tax deductions withheld from those payments. By providing HMRC with information regarding payments rendered and the accompanying tax deductions, the CIS Contractor's Monthly Return guarantees transparency and adherence to regulations within the construction sector. In today's guide, we explain the various components of the monthly 'CIS300' return, how the process works, key deadlines, the ramifications of non-compliance, and much more.

Further Delays on the Roll-Out of the Domestic Reverse Charge for the Building & Construction Services. https://www.taxfile.co.uk/2020/07/further-delays-on-the-roll-out-of-the-domestic-reverse-charge-for-the-building-construction-services/ Thu, 30 Jul 2020 08:47:11 +0000 https://www.taxfile.co.uk/?p=4357

The domestic reverse-charge is a major change to the way VAT is collected by HMRC in the building and construction industry reporting under the Construction Industry Scheme (CIS).

It was being introduced to combat VAT fraud in the sector and the initial roll-out on 1st October 2019 was delayed due to a combination of the sector being ill-prepared for the change and Brexit.

At Taxfile, we will start contacting our VAT clients working under the CIS, in preparation for the 1st March 2021 start date.

If you would like to know how to prepare your business for this, you will need to:

New Battersea Branch – Now Open in London SW8! https://www.taxfile.co.uk/2018/05/new-battersea-branch-sw8/ Fri, 11 May 2018 14:23:30 +0000 https://www.taxfile.co.uk/?p=2884 Taxfile's new Battersea branch in London SW8

Our new branch is now open in Battersea, London SW8. You'll find it very convenient if you work nearby — we're at Cloisters Business Centre, near Battersea Park Station, just off Battersea Park Road (A3205). You can park easily too - just pull into the business centre and you'll find us opposite the church, on the ground floor with the brown door (unit 4). Come and see us there too if you're an existing client and find Battersea more convenient than our Tulse Hill and Dulwich Village offices.

During April & May, the Battersea branch is open from 11am right through to 7pm from Monday to Thursday — so you don't need to take a day off work to come and see us. On Fridays we're open 11am to 3pm by appointment and Faiz will be a familiar face to many that day.

The new Battersea branch will especially suit construction workers in the building industry, which is very active in this location. Contractors who have set up as limited companies will find our CIS work, payroll and bookkeeping services very useful, affordable and convenient. Meanwhile, sub-contractors will like the fact that we're experts at getting workers tax refunds and rebates, particularly if they've been working within the Construction Industry Scheme ('CIS'). We claim thousands back from HMRC on their behalf every year.

Call 020 7821 9444 for a free 20 minute consultation at the Battersea branch, or 020 8761 8000 for Tulse Hill, Dulwich and all other branches.

Taxfile's Battersea branch is at Studio 4, Cloisters House, Cloisters Business Centre, Battersea Park Road, London SW8 4BG. Opening hours: Mon-Thurs 11am-7pm (& Fridays 11am-3pm by appointment). Visit our new, stand-alone Battersea branch website for more details.
