What methods can you use to verify your CIS status as a subcontractor under the Construction Industry Scheme. In this blog post, we take a look at the options.

To verify your status as a subcontractor under CIS, you need to provide your unique reference number to your contractor. The contractor can then check your status with HMRC using one of these methods:

  • HMRC’s CIS online service
  • HMRC’s CIS Helpline – 0300 200 3210
  • A third-party software package

Your status will determine how much tax will be deducted from your payments.
