Employment Allowance - Omitted to claim for 2021-2022

Posted Tue, 18 Jul 2023 13:03:26 GMT by
Hi. I omitted to submit a claim for Employment Allowance for my 2021-2022 Tax Tear. A complete mistake on my part. I claimed for all years before, and all subsequent years, including the latest 2023-2024, just not this one. Can I claim for this missed year?

Hi,

Yes, you can still claim for tax year 2021 to 2022. You will need to send a 2021 to 2022 Employer Payment Summary (EPS) with the employment allowance indicator set to 'Yes'. Once this has been submitted successfully, the credit should be applied to your account within 72 hours.

Should you need any assistance in sending the EPS, you should contact your payroll provider. 

Thank you.
