CJRS extension: CIPP flow chart 29 April 2021
The announcement, at Budget on 3 March 2021, that the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme (CJRS) would be extended until the end of September 2021, came with it the news that, for periods commencing on or after 1 May 2021, more individuals could potentially be eligible for the scheme. The CIPP’s Policy team has produced a useful flow chart for members to use when establishing firstly, whether an employee is eligible for furlough, and if they are, then the method to apply when calculating furlough payments, based on whether employees are fixed paid or variably paid, and when they were employed and included on a Real Time Information (RTI) submission.
The team recommends that you print a copy of this flow chart off for use when determining the method of calculation required for each employee.
CIPP comment
The flow chart is a member-only benefit, so if you would like to gain access to this and other helpful payroll resources, then please contact Membership, at Membership@cipp.org.uk.

New Quick Poll: Checking CJRS Claims 4 May 2021
As the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme (CJRS) is expected to close at the end of September 2021, we know that the next big activity from HMRC will be related to compliance, and checking the accuracy of claims submitted under the scheme. In recognition of this, The CIPP’s Policy team has launched a new Quick Poll to gauge how many of you – the payroll professionals – have had the capacity to check the claims that you have made, as we appreciate that you have all been particularly busy over the last year. Additionally, for those that have been able to review their CJRS claims, have any of you identified mistakes? With payroll departments expected to deal with the business-as-usual tasks of ensuring workers were paid both accurately and on time, whilst grappling with the administration of a whole new scheme, it would not be surprising to hear that errors have been made.
