We have two companies which we do the payroll for which are owned by the same person. He has asked me to add a new starter to Company A however this new starter previously worked for Company B some months ago.
The date of birth I have been given by email doesn't match the one on the P45 from Company B and having checked a few date of births for employees at company B it seems they all have the same date of birth 1st January 1980. I can only imagine that the previous bookkeeper who's position I took over in the company has set the date of births provisionally or something?
Looks like I will be going through 70 payrolls to check there aren't any others like this.
Where do I start to correct this and will a change in date of birth affect tax and national insurance and so will require rollbacks as far back as summer last year. Fridays are great aren't they always throw a spanner in the works so you work 100 times as hard and are fit for nothing by the weekend! lol
