Please see below the latest updated information regarding the above.

You will notice that the information says that you need an online PAYE account. Please wait before applying for this at present if you do not already have one. We have an online PAYE account as an agent for our employers and this enables us to file the payroll returns on your behalf. It is not yet clear whether we will be able to use this account to make the Job Retention Scheme claim on your behalf and we will advise further once the full information is available, but we do need to be able to continue to file your returns.
In the meantime, it is very important that you keep us updated if you need to start any of your employees on furlough leave this month before we process your payroll. For payrolls which remain the same each month so we do not await your instructions, we will start processing on April 16th, so please advise before this date. If you are not sure whether you will need to furlough any employees after this date, but before the end of the month, please email us to ask that we delay processing of your payroll.
This is all of the information that we have at this time. Thank you for emailing any requests or instructions rather than calling the office, where we only have one member of staff working on the tasks that cannot be completed at home.
Thank you for your patience.
