Is form P11d(b) due for a company that is dormant, and if so would a penalty be levied if filed late?
No benefits obviously paid as the company has not traded since incorporation.
Any help on this greatly appreciated - I have five clients like this!

If the companies are dormant you should not be filing P11Ds.
In general terms a PIID is only issued where PAYE is in operation.
If by error a scheme has been set up and a P35 sreceived for a dormant company you can always complete a nil P35 and tick the "not due " P11D box on page 4 and post it (not electronic submission) to HMRC. However as P35s are now late I suggest that you phone PAYE district and request that they cancel PAYE scheme ASAP. They may ask you to submit a nil P35.
Also send a letter to them -if like me you don't trust the HMRC.
