How it works
Sign once. We handle the rest.
Most CIS subcontractors never file Self Assessment returns because no one told them they could reclaim overpaid tax. MeTax files the returns, chases HMRC, and the refund comes to you directly.

Trust and evidence
What MeTax needs before an HMRC refund claim
CIS and PAYE refund work depends on records, not guesses. Useful evidence includes CIS deduction statements, payslips, P60s, P45s, mileage records, tool and materials receipts, bank records, UTR, National Insurance number and any HMRC letters. MeTax checks the tax year, income, deductions and allowable expenses before a filing step is prepared.
01
CIS refunds
Best for subcontractors where tax was deducted before work expenses were counted.
02
PAYE refunds
Best for wrong tax codes, work expenses, mileage, professional fees, tools or uniform claims.
03
Fee position
HMRC pays the refund to you directly. MeTax invoices after payment, so the customer is not asked to pay before HMRC pays.
