Getting the NI on benefits right
Getting the National Insurance (NI) treatment of employee benefits wrong remains a common issue for employers, particularly where the benefits are payrolled. Errors can lead to underpaid NI and potential compliance action. What should you check?
The winter fuel payment will be paid to state pension recipients this winter and is worth £200 per household, or £300 if you’re over 80.
Eligible pensioners will receive a letter in October or November, with the payment being made automatically in November or December. New details have been released on the eligibility criteria, including a useful tool to check whether your income is over the threshold of £35,000. If it is, you’ll still receive the payment, but it will be clawed back using the tax system. The tool will confirm how the payment will be recovered if applicable.
