Managing employee benefits and expenses can feel like navigating a maze, especially when it comes to reporting to HMRC. If you\u2019ve provided any taxable expenses or benefits in the 2024\/25 tax year, it\u2019s crucial to hit the right deadlines\u2014both for HMRC filings and for keeping your team informed.<\/p>\n
Even if you\u2019ve payrolled benefits through real-time payroll reporting, there\u2019s still work to do once the year ends. By 1 June 2025, each employee must receive a clear breakdown of their payrolled benefits. You can slip this onto their payslip, drop them a quick email, or send a letter\u2014whatever works best for you. Then, come 6 July 2025, make sure your online P11D(b) return is filed, including all those payrolled amounts in your Class 1A National Insurance calculations.<\/p>\n
For benefits outside your payroll\u2014things not covered by a PAYE Settlement Agreement\u2014you\u2019ll need to issue individual P11D forms. These must also be submitted online by 6 July 2025; HMRC no longer accepts paper. Don\u2019t forget that your P11D(b) needs to declare these non-payrolled benefits too, and the Class 1A liability you calculate must reflect every taxable perk you\u2019ve provided.<\/p>\n
Last but not least, your employees deserve to know exactly what\u2019s been reported on their behalf. By the 6 July deadline, hand over each person\u2019s P11D details\u2014either as a copy of the form, or again by email or letter. Miss a deadline or make a mistake, and you could face hefty penalties. Stay organised, keep those dates in your diary, and you\u2019ll breeze through this year\u2019s benefits reporting with confidence.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
