A family who have been employing a nanny have just realised that a P35 needs to be done for 2011-12. They are not yet registered as an employer.
There is no tax/NI to pay as earnings are between the LEL & primary threshold.
If they register now, any ideas whether they will make the 19th May deadline (getting PAYE ref & online ID etc)
Any tips to speed things up?
Thanks in advance!

Ought to be OK, I think
If they get on with it (register as an employer tomorrow morning, and then enrol for PAYE online as soon as they receive their tax office employer reference) they should manage it in time, I think.
If the employer reference is a bit delayed then an agent could still file for them but there is more than 2 weeks and in my experience HMRC is reasonably quick about new registrations and enrolments.
Recent actual example...
Set up PAYE scheme online on 11th April 2012, first pay day to be 30th April 2012.
Same day receive an acknowlegment saying "
Thank you for your email.
We will not proceed with your scheme at this time as you have indicated that you do not
intend to pay anyone until the new tax year.
Due to annual system upgrades we will complete your registration shortly after April 6th
2012.
We have saved your details so there is no need to reply or re-apply nearer the time. We
will email you when the registration is complete.
