Paying employees early before Christmas

  • Written by Katie
  • December 4, 2024
  • Business News

Some employers need to pay their employees earlier than usual in December. This can be for several reasons, such as businesses closing during the festive period and needing to pay workers earlier than normal. As in earlier years HMRC have announced that they have relaxed the RTI (Real Time Information) reporting obligations.

If you do pay early over the Christmas period, you must report your normal or contractual payment date on your Full Payment Submission (FPS). For example: if you pay on 20 December but your normal payment date is 31 December, please report the payment date as 31 December. The FPS would need to be sent on or before 31 December.

Doing this will help to protect your employees’ eligibility for income-based benefits such as Universal Credit, as an early payment could affect current and future entitlements.
