axis payroll User Guide Supplement March 2020

If you are an eligible employer, the employment allowance is increasing to £4,000 a year from April 2020. If you aready claim the allowance and will continue to claim you will need to ensure that you submit an Employer Payment Submission (EPS) in the new tax year and then continue to make the appropriate deductions from the amount of Class1 secondary National Insurance Contributions that you would have paid to HMRC. 

If you have been eligible to claim the 'Employment Allowance'  and have not yet submitted your claim for 2019-2020, you will need to go to 'Amend Employer Details' for the payroll data set through which you wish to claim the allowance and tick the 'Employment Allowance' option. Note: if you are operating more than one payroll data set, you should only claim through one data set.

Your final Calculate Monthly Remittance for the year will then include your claim for the allowance. You will then need to set 'Employment Allowance claim' to 'Yes' when submitting your final end of year EPS to advise HMRC that you are making the claim.
