Is there anything else I need to do - registering a company for PAYE
Permalink Closed

For a new company I have got them the PAYE reference and the Accounts office reference. The PAYE booklet has arrived. Also I have registered to act on behalf of the client as an agent. The client has given us the code number and I have submitted this to HMRC and they are no longer pending.

Is there anything else I need to do? Do I need to register them for online filing? Also how do I add them to our client list on the HMRC website? I thought they would've been added on there automatically once we had confirmed the code number.

Kay,

Sometimes its takes about 24 hours for anything to show on the HMRC website, so if you have done it this morning it probably won't show until tomorrow.

Thanks Amanda. I have just checked and they have now appeared on our client list.

So far I have received their PAYE reference and Accounts office reference. I have received their PAYE payment booklet and have entered the authorisation code which I suspect is just for online filing. Is there anything left to do?

I have been told by HMRC that the company will need to fill in form 64/8 to authorise us to act on their behalf so I have emailed a pdf copy of the form to the director.

They have been set up on sage payroll but when I try to enter the IR secure mailbox to submit the p45's it says you must enter your e-submission settings before using the IP secure mailbox.

I'm so worried I have missed something. Is there any check list for setting up a new employer for PAYE. The HMRC website is so confusing.

I have now set the company up for online filing and got them a user ID and password. I was just about to send them form 64-8 to get authorisation to act as their agent for PAYE (I thought I had already done that now that they have appeared on the client list or is that just for online filing on their behalf?) but I have noticed that another colleague of mine has sent the form 64-8 to HMRC but for corporation tax. Do I need to send another one for PAYE?

The payroll also needs running from 3rd October and now that its the 20th November if the PAYE comes to over £1500 on the P32 then the payment is going to be late too!

Any advice for when this comes around again would be appreciated. Its taken me so long to get reference numbers etc that I haven't even ran their payroll yet. There must be a quicker way? O rmaybe next time I should apply for everything straight away?

With the PAYE you could get them to pay an estimate on-account until the final figure is known. 

I've found in the past that the 64-8 gives you more credence with HMRC than just having the client on your online lists. At the very least, it won't do any harm.

best wishes,
Tim
