Basic Paye - extra one off payment


I use basic Paye Tools for my client, his employee is paid weekly for 3 days work, on  a wednesday.

This coming week it will change to 5 days per week, paid weekly on Friday.

The employee has just been paid an extra payment for working Thursday and Friday.

That is after I had submitted his wednesday weekly pay and before I submit his new friday weekly pay.

There is no one off category (1O) Do I just submit today (now Monday) or add to Friday's or what? please

Thanks Joanne, I have trawled through that link all night, but there is no clear picture for my scenario.  I assume I can put through an extra payment dated today and then the new weekly amount on Friday.  

If it wasn't for having to submit it immediately I would put both through as one payment on Friday.

My worry is that on Friday I will be told you have already submitted for this period!

thanks again

Daisy

Not sure about the 'submit immediately', it should go BEFORE they are paid. Im assuming from the description that the payroll is not being done a week in arrears, just being paid on a Friday for work done Monday to that same Friday.

You need to 'encourage' the employer to not pay early!

The answer is on the last page
www.gov.uk/running-payroll/changing-paydays

plus click through on the NI link.
www.gov.uk/guidance/aligning-payroll-to-the-correct-tax-period

Hint - presumably it was last Wed when the last payroll was done - which was in the last PAYE period. So future ones are in this PAYE period.

Thanks Joanne, employer forgot to let me know that he had increased employees hours and pay from 3 days to 5.

I have strongly advised he tell me before he makes payment in future.

I will submit now and again on Friday.

Hi Daisy 

I'm a little confused, you say his hours change from this week, but also say that the employer has already been paid an extra 2 days. Why has the employer done that?  Will he, in effect, be paid 7 days this week?  If that's the case, I would treat the two days already paid as an advance, work out the payroll on Friday, then deduct the advance from the net pay.

You can't make two submissions in one week so hopefully you didn't submit today. If you did, resubmit on Friday with the correct figures as above.

Like Joanne, I have assumed the employee is paid at the end of the week they work.

 It didn't Joanne, but I think Daisy felt she had to submit something on Monday because of the 2 days extra payment.
