HMRC is running a webinar later this week on 26 June which will provide an overview of forms P11D and P11D(b), examine the benefits of submitting these online, and consider payrolling of expenses and benefits. However, it will not cover how to calculate the value of benefits.
Need to know more about PSAs? Choose from the short videos in the 'PAYE Settlement Agreements' playlist, available on HMRC’s YouTube channel.
Here’s a reminder of the key deadlines next month:
