Penalties will start in October 2014 if you fail to file PAYE submission on time
Since Real Time Information (RTI) began in April 2013 the HMRC have been saying that they are going to introduce penalties for late payments and late submissions.
They have now are announced that they will start in October 2014 if you fail to file PAYE submission on time.
The penalties will apply unless you follow these simple rules.
- You must submit an FPS each time you make a payment to an employee, on or before the date that you pay them.
- You must send an EPS if no payments are made to any employees , or if you have any statutory payments to claim.
- Pay your PAYE on time – by the 19th of the month following the payroll process date.
The late filing/payment penalties will depend on the number of employees, and will be charged for each month the submission is not filed on time, up to a maximum of 11 fixed penalties in a tax year.
1 to 9 £100
10 to 49 £200
50 to 249 £300
250 or more £400
If the submission is late for three months or more they could charge a further penalty of 5% of the tax/NICs that would have been paid if the information it provides had been sent on time.
