PAYROLL QUERY

I have been approached by a recruitment company for outsourced payroll services. The recruitment agency not registered with HMRC for payroll services. My company is registered for payroll services - how do I go ahead in accepting the contract? Do I have to use my payee reference to process their payslips even though I am not the one employing the staff? How do I process payroll for agency staff paid through an umbrella company?

Hi Paul Mburu,
Please phone the employers helpline on 0300 200 3200 as we would need to discuss in more detail before giving an answer.

Thank you. 

The advice from HMRC is. Children under 16 do not pay National Insurance, so you only need to include them on your payroll if their total income is over their Personal Allowance. I am considering employing 3 of my children in a new family company I am setting up. One will be 17, one 15 and one 13. They will have different levels of responsibility and different pay. All will be below the threshold of £12k. The eldest would be on payroll and what way do I record payment to the youngest two to ensure it is accounted for appropriately?

Hi ,
 

You must include all employees on the payroll, even if they are paid less than the threshold .

Thank you .
