PAYE investigations often arise due to errors in payroll reporting, such as unreported wages or missed tax deductions. Late or inaccurate Real-Time Information (RTI) submissions can also trigger scrutiny from HMRC.
HMRC may initiate an investigation based on complaints or tips from employees or third parties. Additionally, businesses are sometimes selected for routine compliance checks, even without specific concerns.
Certain sectors, like construction or hospitality, face higher scrutiny due to their higher risk of non-compliance. HMRC often targets these industries to ensure proper adherence to payroll regulations.
Rely on our expertise to navigate complexities with precision and ease.
Preparation is crucial for effectively managing a PAYE investigation. Businesses should maintain accurate payroll records, including payslips, RTI submissions, and contracts, to ensure compliance. Conducting regular internal audits can help identify and correct errors before HMRC flags them. Seeking professional advice from PAYE experts at The Taxcom can provide valuable insights and pinpoint potential issues in payroll systems. Additionally, training staff to stay informed about PAYE regulations and compliance requirements is essential.
PAYE investigations often uncover issues that businesses must address, such as:
Using outdated or incorrect tax codes can result in underpaid or overpaid taxes.
Failure to report benefits like company cars or private healthcare can lead to significant liabilities.
