Penalties for outstanding 2011-12 PAYE Employer Annual Returns (P35 and P14s)
1 February 2013 (published in NOL as part of HMRC informal weekly update to stakeholders)
The 2011-12 Employer Annual Returns (P35 and P14s) were due by 19 May 2012. These returns are now over 8 months late and HMRC has started to send penalty notices where our records indicate that we have not yet received your return. The penalty will be based on £100 per 50 employees for each month your return is outstanding, from 20 September 2012 to 19 January 2013. So, an employer with 50 or less employees will receive a £400 penalty. This penalty is in addition to those penalties already issued in September 2012.
If you have a return to make and have not sent it yet, please send it without delay.
Appealing against a penalty If you wish to appeal against the penalty notice, you must write to the office shown on the notice within 30 days stating why you think the penalty notice is wrong.

Following continued consultation with stakeholders, HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) has agreed to extend the evaluation period for the single compliance process to 31 August 2012. This will make sure that both the process and internal implementation package is fully evaluated. If the trial sees favourable results, the single compliance process project will commence in September 2012.
