We recently acquired a limited company and are taking over their payroll in November. They currently use a 3rd party for their payroll and the 3rd party has an agent log in to be able to access P6s and Student loan information. There is no-one within the company we have acquired who knows the Gateway ID and password that we need to be able to access the information for payroll. How can we get access HMRC services to be able to get the information that we need?

I have two queries relating to SMP: - When calculating average pay for SMP should you include a bonus payment that was made to the employee during the weeks that average pay is calculated. And, if the bonus is included and and the SMP figure is then substantially higher than the employees normal monthly pay, should the higher SMP figure be paid over to the employee if the company SMP policy is to pay full pay to an employee for the first 20 weeks?

Our company are looking to only hold gender information for all employees but we are not sure on HMRC requirements around this. We have looked at the guidance online but it is not clear to us. Can you advise please on employee information that we need to collect for PAYE purposes.
