29th May 2009: Sarah from payroll talking about P60s
Hello there...Sarah here from the rather wonderful Payroll Dept here at Gabem. To give you a little background of the sort of person who is processing your payments for you I probably fit a 'payroller' stereotype in that there is nothing better than a good form that needs filling in, love doing sums and have no fear of an absolute deadline. I've been asked to write a post about the P60s some of you will be receiving shortly.
It's that time of year again . the end of May heralds the gentle thud of P60s hitting doormats all over the country. P60s are only issued to those who are current employees on the 5 April 2009, if this is you your P60 will be whizzing through the post right now. If you were issued a P45 by Gabem before the end of the tax year will not receive one, the figures you will need for your tax return should be taken from the P45. If you were working for another employer you will receive one from them. However, if you were not working or working on a self employed basis you will not receive a P60.
The letter with your P60 gives details of what goes where on your tax return, should you be required to complete one. If you do need to do a self assessment you need to complete a separate sheet for each period of employment, so you will need to enter the details from the P45 and the P60 if you have had several employments during the year. Our letter explains what you need to do but you can always give us a call and ask if you are unsure.
Oh and don't forget we have an expenses dispensation from HM Revenue &Customs so we will not be issuing P11Ds this year, unless you have claimed for items not covered by it such as training, tools or safety clothing.
Once again we will be providing our self assessment completion service for Umbrella company employees. This additional service costs £85 plus VAT, the closing date for this service is the 31 August.
Have a great weekend.
Sarah
