Record HMRC CIS Verification Results & Keep the Evidence

The Problem

The result of each CIS check sits in an inbox or a screenshot — and goes missing when you need proof later.

What Changes

Check each subcontractor with HMRC, record the verification number and result against their profile, and keep a timestamped history that’s easy to audit and easy to maintain.

How It Works

A check with HMRC is only useful if you can prove it later. Keep the result and the evidence together.

  1. 1

    Capture subcontractor details

    Record the identifiers you need for CIS verification and keep them tied to the subcontractor profile.

  2. 2

    Check with HMRC, then record the result

    Check the subcontractor with HMRC online or by phone, then record the verification number, matched status and rate on the subcontractor record. Site Samurai does not contact HMRC for you.

  3. 3

    Store proof automatically

    Keep the outcome and timestamps so compliance isn’t dependent on someone saving screenshots.

  4. 4

    Track compliance over time

    See verified status at a glance and maintain history so you’re audit-ready.

  5. 5

    Export records

    Produce a clear audit record for internal governance and HMRC queries.
