Form CIS305 should be completed so as to apply for gross payment status.
A search on HMRC website "CIS305" should lead you to the relevant pages.
PS. It's form CIS302 for individuals, I've quoted the Ltd Co version here CIS305.
CIS Helpline
You can call the CIS helpline and they'll process the application over the phone. You then have to wait for it to be checked (took 2 weeks) and if it passes, they send you a letter confirming gross payment status.
0845 366 7899
No need to wait
Worth pointing out that you don't have to wait for 12 months before doing a qualifying test.
You can apply for gross status as soon as turnover reaches £30,000 per director.
