I am a recently started sole practitioner.
I am not yet registered as a PAYE agent (waiting), and so not registered as PAYE agent for my new client. My client is also not registered for the online PAYE service themselves for their company.
How do I submit a month 12 (quarterly payroll) for 2013/2014 in the absence of all of this? Is this possible using any software, as they all require a login to submit (which I assumes means I need to be agent if using my details, or if using my client's login details then they need to be set up for the service?

Gateway ID
You need a Gateway ID and password (yours or theirs), and their PAYE reference. Once you have those you can file, nothing else is needed.
Bad news
You'll probably have to call them to see exactly what's wrong.
The message is just too bland and vague.
Surprised you couldn't file using the client's log-in though.
Print it off - there's your "reasonable excuse".
Frustrating
We used to be able to file P35s without agent authorisation. However, we are also now in the position where we are awaiting authorisation and until we have it in place we receive the same error message. Most frustrating that the reporting process can be held up like this.
Authentication
1046 is that the Gateway ID, password, or PAYE reference are incorrect.
Or at least not recognised by the Gateway. They may be mis-typed, or maybe you're not registered with the Gateway, or maybe the scheme hasn't been set up yet.
Payroo
I know that the free cloud software Payroo submits my RTi reports using their credentials not mine as agent or the clients. I have wondered how they do that but seems to back up what you're saying.
Usually fine but I've been waiting a couple of days now for some Final Year Submissions to be marked as Processed.
Anyone know if this is normal at the moment?
Payroo- previous year
Hi, sorry about this but if you register a payroo account now you won't be able to process wages for last year. I've had this issue this week too! I'm having to wait for the login codes to arrive and I'll have to process via an Earlier Year Update submission
No agent authorisation
You don't need to be authorised as an agent to file. This is only about ID, password, PAYERef being valid.
No authorisation
Hello, so I could use my agent credentials to file for a client that i'm not yet registered agent?
Sounds like good news to me
Not software
Do you know what software will allow us to do that?
thanks
It isn't the software, it's the way filing has always operated. Your issue with Payroo was about tax years, not authorisation.
Any
I think the idea is that any software that allows filing for last year, not payroo! but Sage for example. That's what i'm hoping.
