Late payment penalties – The proposals


  – Announced at Budget 2009



  – Implementation intended to begin in 2010
Late payment penalties – The proposals
  The intention is that they:

  • will apply to all employers

  • replace the current ‘late payment surcharge’ applied
    to employers with 250 or more employees

  • are expected to apply to payments due from
    19/22 May 2010

  • are likely to be calculated and assessed after the end of the
    relevant tax year
Late payment penalties – The proposals
  The intention is that:

  • There will be no penalty if there is:

           • a reasonable excuse for the lateness; or

           • only one default in the year

  • Penalties will range between 1% and 4% depending on the
    number of defaults…

  • …but you may have to pay additional penalties of 5% if any
    payments are still unpaid after 6 and 12 months

  • All carry the right of appeal
Late payment penalties – How to avoid them

  • Make sure you pay on time!



  • Phone the Business Payment Support Service if you have
    worries about being able to pay

             • No further penalties for payments made under a
               time to pay agreement

             • penalties already charged can be included in the
               agreement
Business Payment Support Service

•   Introduced on 24 November 2008
•   For employers worried about meeting payments
    of tax, NICs, VAT and other payments

        – Your tax reference number(s)
        – Details of the tax involved
        – Details of when you expect to be able to pay the
          liabilities

    rise to become the same as it is for men – 65

•   All women born between 6 April 1950 and 5 April 1955 are affected

•   All women born on or after 6 April 1955 will reach SPa at age 65
