Leaver FPS

Posted By John Murrell over 7 years ago

Hi,

I have an employee who is leaving on 6th November and our normal processing date for monthly pay would be the 25th. I assumed that once I had completed processing his pay & P45 that he would be included on the next FPS submission - i.e. 25th November. However, When I tried to complete the "Update Records" process I received a message reminding me to submit a FPS on or before the date he is paid (6th). Am I correct in thinking that he will appear on the next normal FPS, and we won't be penalised for a late submission?

Thank you.

Hi John,

If you’re paying the employee before you process your November payroll, you will need to submit a separate full payment submission (FPS) to HMRC to inform them of this, before you process your November payroll.

An FPS should be submitted for an employee on or before the date you pay them.

However, if you’re not paying the employee who is leaving until you run your usual payroll run at month end, their final pay and P4 info will just be included in your month end FPS with the rest of your employees.

Thanks Paul,
Yes I will be processing the leaver before the the November payroll. I did not realise I could make more than one FPS in a pay period, so thanks for clarifying that.
Regards, John.
