Audit Consulting Group – CIS Gross Payment Status & Net Payment Explained. CIS Gross Payment Status – Maximise Your Income, Reduce Deductions

Apply for CIS gross payment status UK to receive construction payments with 0% deductions. Audit Consulting Group helps subcontractors and contractors secure HMRC approval and improve cash flow.

Whether you’re new to CIS or ready to upgrade from CIS net payment status, we provide expert support to guide you through the entire process.

What Is CIS Gross Payment Status?

Under the Construction Industry Scheme, subcontractors usually have 20% tax deducted from their payments. However, if you qualify for CIS gross payment status UK, you receive your payments in full — without any deductions — and pay tax later through Self Assessment.

This gives you better cash flow, more control over your finances, and greater flexibility to grow your business.

CIS Net Payment Status

• You are paid with 20% tax deducted at source
• Contractor passes the deduction to HMRC
• You may be due a refund at year-end

CIS Gross Payment Status

• You are paid in full with no tax deductions
• You are responsible for paying your tax via Self Assessment
• More income upfront, less waiting for tax refunds
