P11D logjam unleashes flood of penalty warnings
HMRC has been issuing warning letters about penalties for late filing of forms P11D and P11D(b) for 2019/20, despite receiving the required forms in most cases.

Add this to SEISS error letters and it is clear that HMRC are not open in admitting errors in HMRC systems. I can remember the CIS penalty avalanche when there was a system change and one of my clients received £60,000 late filing of CIS penalties. HMRC refused to speak or reply and finally agreed appeal less that 5 days before the tribunal date.
HMRC should be fined £100, payable to the affected "customer", every time they made a mistake like this.
The country would be broke.
I vote it all goes into a seperate fund for buying an aircraft carrier. We have 2, Australia has 2. Surely we should outgun the aussies
Why cannot Tax Codes be changed at any time, to collect any PAYE tax liability for any year (subject to appropriate safety 'caps'). Surely the fact that RTI is submitted every payroll run, means that data is live and current - or was the RTI system simply to avoid the delays caused by awaiting the historic P32 postal submission before implementing recovery action?
My wife has a part time job in addition to her full time job - HMRC have known this for almost 3 years; with respective Employers being fully compliant with their RTI's and implementation of Codes issued by HMRC.
HMRC have persisted in using BR w1/m1 instead of using an appropriate K code; resulting in very large demands supported by P800 Forms issued last week for 2019/20. The K codes could have been implemented in 2017/18 or 2018/19 or 2019/20!
Are they all numpties ?- some of my grandchildren (still at school), could easily have seen that the BR w1/m1 code will only deal with the present year liability in that one employment!
They don't want you to pay the right amount of tax. Imagine how many jobs would be lost and penalty opportunities missed if everyone paid the right amount of tax.
'However, employers can still download the P11D and P11d(b) forms, print and complete by hand, then post to HMRC.'
Interesting that one about paper forms, in my experience HMRC no long accept or approve any paper forms, bar 64/8, even though they say they do.
