Construction Industry Scheme - repayment claims for companies We have produced a checklist for companies to use prior to sending in a repayment claim. The checklist contains details of the top issues that are likely to affect how quickly we can process a claim. CIS checklist Self-certification of employee share schemes and online filing of share scheme forms In December 2012, the Government announced that it would introduce self-certification of Share Incentive Plans (SIP), Save As You Earn schemes (SAYE) and Company Share Option Plans (CSOP), and online filing for all share scheme forms. This follows recommendations made by the Office of Tax Simplification in its report on tax advantaged employee share schemes, published in March 2012. While the final details are subject to further development and discussion with stakeholders, we have produced an outline of how it is proposed that the relevant processes will operate for customers, along with anticipated implementation dates. We are developing these arrangements with customers through our Employment Related Securities (ERS) stakeholder forum and sub groups. Further details and draft legislation will be published on our website later this year.

Consultation: Tax-Free Childcare A consultation seeking views on the Government's plans to introduce Tax-Free Childcare for working families, and additional assistance with childcare for parents through Universal Credit.

The closing date for this consultation is 14 October 2013.

As part of this consultation HMRC and HM Treasury will work with employers and the payroll industry to explore how the transition from Employer-Supported Childcare to Tax-Free Childcare can work best for employers, and how those employers that wish to can continue to be involved in helping their employees with childcare.

If you would like to be involved in these discussions, please express an interest by emailing tax-free.childcare@hmrc.gsi.gov.uk .
