I am trying to set up direct debit for both PAYE and CIS. Is it correct that the deductions for CIS + PAYE and NI should be enter together as one figure on the DD form?
I would have answered but I was waiting for someone more knowledgeable - but my own opinion is it will just be the one figure. When I pay via internet banking it is just the one figure I use and the amounts are sorted out at the end of the year when the P35 is submitted. Similarly when paying by cheque, the pay in book only has the one box now.

Actually I'm just filling up the Direct Debit form and it is one box there, so it's exactly the same as paying by cheque. Thanks a lot Peasie for your reply, I can always count on you ;)
But direct debits are taken from your account by the supplier's (HMRCs) bank not changed by the customer's (your) bank, that's why they can be variable but if HMRC don't know the amount how can they direct debit it - I'm baffled. It's not like VAT where you complete the return on line and then HMRC use that information to DD it from your account.

I've been told that you have to change the amount each month.
That's what I found on HMRC website:
"To set up a payment from the same account as before just click on the Direct Debit reference number shown in the table on the Summary of your Direct Debit Instructions (DDIs) screen."
If you set up a direct debit for PAYE you tell HMRC the amount to take each month, by entering it on their website through the PAYE Online pages.
This is similar to what you can do for your quarterly VAT payments. You make the VAT return, and they take it from the nominated DD acount on the 12th of the following month.
And yes, the answer to the original question is that you combine PAYE/NI/Student loan/CIS into a single figure that you tell them each month/quarter.
