RTI - new employee

RTI - new employee

Didn't find your answer?

My client forgot to tell me about his new starter this month. Pay day is today. RTI was submitted on Tuesday.  Payroll Manager says I can send a corrected RTI or wait until next month and the cumulative figures will be correct.  Which is the right way?

(and if its to re-submit the RTI - how do you do that?)

Many thanks

New Employee
Very surprised your software doesn't cater for that. Exactly the same happened to me this week. I filed tha main on Tuesday. My software lets me add a new employee. The start date of 1st Feb allowed me to do a payroll run for that one employee & an independent FPS filed on time.

You can do either

I would re-run the February payroll, after unlocking it, with the starter included and re-submit the February FPS.  Before you open the RTI schedule, click on Tools/Online Filing/IDs & Passwords and tick the "Temporarily allow submissions to be re-sent" box.  Then, when you open the RTI schedule and click to view the February FPS, the bar at the top will say something like "Click to re-submit".  You will need to print the (amended) RTI report.  If you want to print the HMRC acknowledgement, go to Tools/Online Filing/Submission Log, select the second February FPS submission, click on Details and Print.  While you are in the Online Filing menu, untick the "Temporarily allow" box.

A warning
If you have anybody in that payroll run with a payment after leaving I would avoid resubmitting. There is a specific warning on the HMRC pages (don't ask me where) about submitting payments after leaving twice. I can't pin it down to this cause, but I have had a lot of duplicate employment problems arise for people with payments after leaving.
