When you register with an umbrella company, you will want to know how and when you will get paid. Often, one of the first questions we get asked by contractors is, ” How do I submit a timesheet?” We’ve created a short overview to give you all the information you need to submit a timesheet.

How do I submit a timesheet?

The process for submitting timesheets to an umbrella company varies by company, but it’s usually a very straightforward process. You can submit timesheets online through the company’s portal or by emailing them to a designated mailbox. You will be informed how to submit a timesheet during registration, and if you’re not sure, you can ask your umbrella company.

Not all contractors are required to submit a timesheet

Not all contractors are required to submit a timesheet to their umbrella company. If you are unsure whether you need to submit a timesheet to your umbrella company, please get in touch with their payroll or customer service department. Please note that even if you are not required to submit a timesheet to your umbrella company, you may still be required to submit a timesheet to your recruitment agency or end client.
