"How do I add a CIS subcontractor who's got a reference number?"
When you're adding a pre-verified CIS subcontractor, it's likely that you'll already have a copy of their 11-13 digit CIS verification reference number. Usually it's for when you're moving a CIS subcontractor over from a previous payroll system.
To add a pre-verified CIS subcontractor:
- First, select the CIS subcontractor on: MenuPeople
- Then tap: PayPay settingsEmployment type
- Set them as a: "CIS subcontractor"
- Next, tap: TaxTax settingsCIS subcontractor type
- Select the subcontractor type that applies. Sole trader is the most common.
- For subcontractors that your company's previously verified with HMRC, you'll find their 11-13 digit verification reference number on their past CIS monthlies.
- So next, tap: Previously verified, and select: Yes
- Next, enter their: CIS verification reference number
- After that, tap: CIS deduction percent, and select the rate that HMRC gave you. 20% is the most common.
- Then tap: UTR (Unique Taxpayer Reference), and enter the subcontractor's UTR.
- Then tap: Save
- And finally, you'll see a purple tick showing that your new CIS subcontractor has been successfully added.
To open a pay batch's "People" report, to see CIS subcontractor status for many subcontractors:
- First, select the pay batch on: MenuPay batches
- Then tap: PayPeople
- Near the beginning of the row, you'll see the letters "CIS" marking each of your subcontractors.
- And finally, when you scroll across, you'll see their percentage value in the CIS column.
