How does Simplify CIS work?

At Simplify, we always like to keep things as simple and straight-forward as possible.  However, compliance is another key driver in everything that we do, and when it comes to CIS we have one ultimate goal: to keep you, our client, and Mr Tax Man, both happy!

Being compliant relies on understanding the 2 factors that decide if a payment has to have a CIS deduction: the nature of the Construction Operation and your Employment Status Questionnaire.

We know, that when working out whether the Construction Industry Scheme needs to be operated on payments that you receive, there could be 3 scenarios:

  1. The operation you are carrying out is within the scope of CIS, and your Employment Status is Self-employed – Our CIS solution can help
  2. The operation you are carrying out is within the scope of CIS, but your Employment Status is employed – Our Umbrella solution for CIS Contractors can help
  3. The operation you are carrying out is outside the scope of CIS, and your Employment Status is Self-employed – Our Accountancy service can help

Simplify offers a solution to all of these scenarios, and what is more we can move you easily from one to another as circumstances dictate.

Because all this happens under one roof, you still have the same dedicated Personal Account Manager to answer your queries, however your payments are being processed that week.

We will regularly ask you to complete an Employment Status Checklist so that we are confident that you remain on the correct payment solution for your circumstances.

We will handle all invoicing to the Agency or Engager on your behalf, saving you time spent on admin or the cost of an administrative function.  We deal directly with all payments to, and reports for HMRC, meaning that you don’t miss important deadlines and risk penalties for late or inaccurate filing.

When we receive payments for the invoices we have raised on your behalf, we will process it the same day, using Faster Payments, so that it goes into your bank the very same day! At no extra cost!

Mark Prisk, Shadow Minister for Business, has pledged that if the Conservatives win the forth coming election, a Conservative Government would undertake a fundamental review of IR35.

IR35 was introduced in 1999 and has caused confusion and uncertainty for Contractors ever since, with the possibility of HMRC investigations, potential repayment of Income Tax and NI, and even fines for those that fall foul of the confusing regulations.
