PAYE & Employment Forms Guidance

Managing PAYE and employment forms can be confusing for both employers and employees. Whether it’s completing a P35 HMRC return, issuing a P45 HMRC when an employee leaves, submitting a P50 HMRC for tax refunds, or handling a P55 HMRC form related to pensions, accuracy is key.

At Audit Consulting Group, we simplify the process. Our team helps businesses and individuals stay compliant, avoid HMRC penalties, and get the refunds or confirmations they’re entitled to.

Need help with PAYE filing? Our Payroll Services, Filing for PAYE, and Payroll Setup & Implementation ensure your PAYE documents are filed correctly, whether for new hires, leavers, or redundancy payments – PAYE Filing Assistance

Understanding the P35 HMRC Form

The P35 HMRC (Employer Annual Return) was historically used by employers to summarise PAYE tax and National Insurance contributions at the end of each tax year. While HMRC has moved towards Real Time Information (RTI), many businesses still require expert guidance when reconciling past filings or dealing with queries about historic P35 submissions.

We assist with:

• Reviewing PAYE records.
• Ensuring submissions align with HMRC requirements.
• Correcting errors in past filings.

The P45 HMRC Form – Employee Leaver’s Certificate

The P45 HMRC is issued to employees when they leave a job. It shows:

• Pay and tax paid so far in the tax year.
• National Insurance details.
• Employer information.

Employees need this form to:

• Provide details to a new employer.
• Claim a tax refund.
• Prove earnings for loans or benefits.

Employers often struggle with issuing the P45 HMRC correctly and on time. We help businesses automate the process, ensuring compliance with PAYE rules.

The P50 HMRC Form – Claiming a Tax Refund

The P50 HMRC is used when individuals stop working and want to claim a tax refund without waiting until the end of the tax year. Common situations include:

• Redundancy.
• Early retirement.
• Taking a career break.

We guide clients through completing the P50 HMRC accurately, ensuring they receive refunds quickly and without HMRC queries.

The P55 HMRC Form – Pension Drawdowns

The P55 HMRC form applies when an individual takes a flexible payment from their pension but does not withdraw the full amount. This form ensures that PAYE tax is adjusted correctly, preventing overpayment.

Our support includes:

• Completing the P55 HMRC form.
• Checking pension provider records.
• Liaising with HMRC to secure refunds.
