July PAYE and NIC payment deadlines
HMRC reminded Agents and Employers in the July 2014 employer diary that postal payments should have reached HMRC by Friday 18th July and not 19th July. Electronic payments should have cleared HMRC’s account as normal by 22 July.
The 18th deadline applies to postal payments of:
- Class 1A NICs for 2013/14
- PAYE and NIC for the month/quarter ended 5 July.
For payments by an approved electronic method the deadline was Tuesday 22 July. Payments must have cleared into HMRC’s bank account by then. Employers who pay late will be charged interest and maybe a late payment penalty.
