New P45's from 6 April 2009
6 March 2009
Tyas & Company, Chartered Accountants for businesses in Crawley, Horsham, Gatwick and other towns in Sussex and Surrey
From 6 April 2009 the current P45 form will no longer be valid.
It is being superseded by the new A4 version which was first introduced in October last year.
The new P45 includes details of the employee’s date of birth and gender.
HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) has said that any back stock of the A5 P45s should be destroyed by 6 April and that employers must use the larger format instead.
The new P45 will help HMRC match employees information to their records and should reduce the number of queries sent to employers.
Employees may not recognise the new forms and may need reassurance that the form P45 has changed in appearance and now includes their date of birth and gender.
Employers who use HMRC’s free ‘Online Return and Forms – PAYE' service can print parts 1A, 2 and 3 of form P45 onto A4 plain paper when they have submitted the P45 part 1 (employee leaving details) to HMRC online.
The form should be printed onto white A4 paper using black ink.
