Your turnover is not your profit, and your profit is not your tax bill. TaxSnapper works through the supported information you enter for the tax year.
For CIS work, record gross income separately from the tax your contractor deducted.
Allowable expenses and eligible business mileage relief reduce the profit used. Do not count the same vehicle costs twice.
The relevant Personal Allowance and Income Tax bands are applied to the supported information entered.
Class 4 NI is calculated on self-employed profit. Recorded CIS deductions are tax already paid, rather than a business expense.
A contractor’s CIS deduction is a payment towards your tax position. It does not reduce your gross business income when calculating profit.
Read HMRC’s CIS guidance →Same assumptions as above. Actual deductions must match your records. Other payments and liabilities can change the balance. A credit is not a guaranteed HMRC refund.
