As the new tax year approaches, CIS contractors must prepare for the upcoming 2024/25 tax return season.  Last year we witnessed a significant increase in HMRC compliance checks delaying refunds, with many contractors being asked to provide detailed CIS pay/deduction slips and bank account transactions to verify their income.

At Taxfile, we are here to help you navigate these challenges and ensure your tax affairs are in order while offering you peace of mind with our unique HMRC investigation cover. Learn more ...

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.

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.
