Employers reminded of annual return deadline

13 Apr 2012

Employers are being urged to file their annual return (P35 and P14s) by 19 May or risk incurring a penalty.

HMRC has issued an urgent reminder ahead of the impending deadline, along with advice on how to avoid making common errors.

All employers must now file their P35, P38A and P14 returns electronically, with some very limited exceptions i.e. those with religious objections.

Under HMRC’s penalty regime, employers who file their return after 19 May will be charged a penalty of £100 per 50 employees for each month or part month that the return is outstanding.
