HMRC have issued a statement reminding some 1.7 million small employers to send their 2006/07 PAYE End of Year returns online to receive a £150 tax-free payment. The HMRC online filing service is available 24 hours day, seven days a week, and provides employers with the quickest and easiest way of filing returns. Employers who file online are also able to benefit from practical help, as HMRC's internet PAYE service includes an error alert tool that checks all returns to ensure they are correct. Employers who would like help, tips and the latest expert advice on online filing for 2006/07 can visit the HMRC website (see below), or call the HMRC Employer Helpline on 08457 143 143. A free HMRC-produced Employers CD-Rom with general information on employer filing do's and don'ts is also available. Currently, employers with 50 or more employees must file their returns online or face a penalty of at least £100. Employers with fewer than 50 employees are not currently obliged to file online but can obtained a £150 tax-free payment if they do so. Smaller employers who use intermediaries such as agents or payroll bureaux to file a return on their behalf are still eligible for the £150 payment. Links
