HMRC meeting with CIPP members to explore the impact of Real Time Information
18 October 2013
HMRC’s research programme in to the impact of RTI continues with a meeting between CIPP members and HMRC in London on 8 November.
This is planned as a small meeting to encourage discussion from all participants, so we are looking for around seven or eight CIPP members who will have the opportunity to help HMRC understand the challenges faced by employers and payroll bureaux as they prepared for, migrated to, and now send information through, RTI. We know that for some members, especially payroll bureaux, meeting the “on or before” obligations has been particularly challenging, whilst for others there has been little impact. HMRC would like to hear from both employers and payroll bureaux about how you have overcome these challenges, or indeed if you are still searching for a solution. Similarly some members have told us that they have encountered no real problems with RTI, and in fact some have even said it has had a positive effect because it has made them examine their data and processes! Yet for others, it has been and continues to be, a huge burden which shows no sign of abating. HMRC would like to meet with CIPP members holding both these views.
HMRC would also like to meet with someone who was on the RTI pilot so they can understand the impact of the first end of year under the RTI regime.
If you have a view about the introduction of RTI, either positive or negative, and the effect it has had on you and would like to share your experiences in the meeting with HMRC this is your chance to directly have your say. Please email policy using ‘RTI meeting with HMRC’ as your subject title.
HMRC Real Time Information pilot employer research
17 October 2013
HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) has published the findings of their external research with employers in the PAYE Real Time Information (RTI) pilot and the impact RTI has had on their end-of-year activities. The research findings are positive overall with pilot employers generally reporting a reduction of burden at end-of- year. This included reporting that they took less time at end-of-year with RTI having eliminated the most time-consuming parts of the old process. A small proportion of the pilot employers interviewed (12%) said they found end-of-year more difficult than expected. This is not unexpected, given that this was the first time that employers undertook these tasks. The research also shows their confidence appears to be growing with experience of reporting under RTI. HMRC will use this research, alongside other customer insight work, information gathered from the recent RTI survey as well as other relevant evidence to consider whether they need to make any targeted changes to the ‘on or before’ reporting rules from April 2014.
