HMRC has updated its guidance What happens if you don't report payroll information on time to show that the Full Payment Submission (FPS) three day easement has been extended to 5 April 2018.

However, HMRC won’t charge a penalty if:

the FPS is late but all reported payments on the FPS are within three days of employees’ payday (this applies from 6 March 2015 to 5 April 2018). However, employers that persistently file after the payment date but within three days may be contacted or considered for a penalty they’re a new employer and the first FPS was sent within 30 days of paying an employee it’s the first failure in the tax year to send a report on time (this doesn’t apply to employers that register with HMRC as an annual scheme).

"I have attended many of The Learn Centre’s training courses in recent years. They are always of the highest professional standard and deliver updates on complicated HR and Payroll legislation, but in an easy to understand format. I would gladly recommend The Learn Centre to any potential client who is looking for HR & Payroll training courses, bespoke in-house training or expert advice."
