Filed FPS for June - can I amend?
Permalink Closed


Hi everyone,

I have submitted a FPS return for the end of June for a client's monthly payroll.  One of the employees had to be chased for a timesheet, but did not get it to me until after I had to submit the return.

My question is...can I amend an FPS and re-submit or will she now have to wait until the end of July to be paid?  I was planning to ring HMRC this afternoon anyway, but if I can get a quick opinion on here first I would be grateful

Many thanks

It really depends on your software how exactly it's handled Pauline but by the time your next FPS is due the correction should be made.

If a further employee payment needs to be made then a further FPS is due on or before.

It does all mean though that the PAYE liability will change and the correct figure will be payable 19th/22nd.


see : If you discover the error before you submit your next FPS

Many thanks Tim.  I am using 12Pay for  payroll.  The link you gave me suggests that I must submit an additional FPS on or before the day that I pay the employee if making an additional payment to them in the same tax month (which I think is until 5th July, so I have a few days).  Not sure whether 12pay allows me to submit an additional FPS though.

Well you're in good hands then. Dunno about you but I think Tom's been spectacular especially on RTI.

Yes, it does suggest another FPS, as if you're paying another wage rather than just making a correction (say more had been reported than paid over).

kind regards,
Tim

Yes I agree, Tom has done a splendid job, really helpful.

I've just spoken to Matthew at 12Pay and he is sending me an email on how to "rewind to re-do" so that I can re-do the employee.

I don't know about any other software but with sage I was told by them to just process the employees pay when I get the chance to and just submit the following periods FPS as normal because it will pick the extra figures up from the last period if that makes sense.

Hi Noola,

Thanks for the reply.  So, would you just record the employee's pay as twice the amount in the next FPS period?  Or could you go back and amend the employee's pay in the last period but not submit the FPS again?
