Manually adjust PAYE tax on employees salary

We had a new starter in September but they have only just given me their P45. As a result they haven’t paid tax for 5 months and QB is now telling me we need to deduct a large amount from their salary due to tax owed. 

 

The employee is asking if we can split this over two to three payments as they cannot afford it in one go.

 

is it possible for me to manually change the tax calculations? Is it even something HMRC allow? 

 

Thanks

Hi there, Firepaw.

 

You or your employee can contact HMRC to ask for a payment plan to pay his tax in installments. Then, please contact our Phone or Chat support team once you have the instructions, so you'll be guided in setting it up. They have a tool to view your screen while they guide you with the setup.
