February 2010

PAYE PENALTIES FROM 5 APRIL 2010

From the new tax year penalties will be charged if the PAYE/NI that is due each month is not paid in full and on time.

How will the new penalties work?

The penalties will be a percentage of the amount paid late. They will start at 1% and increase to 4% depending on the number of late payments in the year.

There are also penalties of 5% if any of the PAYE due is still not paid after 6 months: and again after 12 months.

You will not get a penalty if you have a reasonable excuse or if you are only late once in a tax year.

Payment Dates

bullet  22nd of the month for cleared electronic payments

bullet  19th if payment is sent by post (or 17th if you are a large employer)

bullet  If the amounts you pay are likely to average less than £1,500 per month over the year, you can pay quarterly.
