Question

Resending PAYE FPS due to a mistake in previous submission

I have previously sort help from both the HMRC & Quickbooks and neither have fixed the problem

 

Here's my problem

I submitted a Period 7 PAYE submission which was correct

I then submitted my Period 8 return but unfortunately made a mistake on the dates and submitted an additional submission that has been recorded as a Period 7 PAYE submission

 

Following assistance, I have re-submitted both my Period 7 & Period 8 submissions (correctly), however the owed amount on the HMRC site is completely wrong (far too high)

 

I am guessing that I still have two submissions that are recorded against Period 7 (the payment dates were different one was the 15th of the month and 5th of the following month)

 

Can anyone help explain how to correct this issue?

Hi there, Philip Moon.

 

Welcome to the QuickBooks Community. I can share details about submitting an FPS. Then, to ensure you'll be able to achieve what your business needs.

 

When you submit a payroll payment to HMRC and realize you have made an error, HMRC prefers that you correct the error on the next payroll run. If you need to correct the error or submission immediately, I reccomend deleting this one and submit again with the correct date and details. 

 

Here's how to delete:

 

  1. In QuickBooks, go to Taxes, and select Payroll Taxes.
  2. Open the FPS submission you want to delete.
  3. Select the bin icon which is located in the top right.

 

Once done, you can now create a new one with the right information so you'll be able to show all employee payments and deductions accurately. You can open this article to see additional information and how to submit FPS to HMRC perfectly: Submit FPS to HMRC in QuickBooks Online Standard Payroll.

 

Lastly, you may refer to this article to view different details on how to resolve different error messages that you might encounter when submitting an EPS to HMRC: Fix errors in QuickBooks Online Standard Payroll.

 

Let me know if you have further concerns about your FPS, I'll make sure to answer them all. Have a wonderful day.
