Tax forms

"How do I see a historical list of all my old tax forms?"

The "Tax forms history" shows you a list of all the tax forms that've ever been prepared in your name.

To see all your old tax forms in a list:

1. First, open yourself on: MenuMe
2. Then tap: TaxTax forms history
3. You'll now see a list of all your old tax forms, including what the form was, when it was prepared, and by who.
4. Next, to see a single tax form, tap the blue "See event" button: (at the start of the row)
5. Now that the tax form's opened, if you tap the blue "more" link, you can see more details. Including which email the tax form was originally sent to.
6. And you can tap the "PDF" button to re-download a copy of your original tax form.
7. By default, you'll see a cover page, which has some notes you may find useful.
8. If you don't want the cover page, tap the blue switch to turn it off:
9. And you'll now see the cover page disappear.
10. The cover page now remembers to also stay off all your other tax forms, from now on, until you turn it back on.
11. Examples of tax forms that you may see in the list include.
12. P45: Details of an employee leaving work.
13. P60: End of year certificate.
14. CIS-PDS: The construction industry scheme payments and deduction statement.
15. SMP: Statutory maternity pay.
16. And finally, as you remain employed for longer, your list of tax forms also gets longer.

Keep in mind that:

• Any person can get to their own: "Tax forms history"
• There's no special permissions required to see your own tax forms.
• Also, even if a person's been deleted, you can always re-download their tax forms, even years later.
• You don't need to undelete the person to download their tax forms.

"P45. How does a person's P45 get sent when the person leaves?"

The P45 is the form a leaving person uses to hand their tax info to their next employer. A person's P45 is automatically emailed out to each leaving person when their final payslip's filed.

To pay a person's final payslip and send them their P45:

1. First, select the person who's leaving on: MenuPeople
2. Now, go to: HR
3. And tap "Dismiss" or "Resign", whichever best matches why the person's leaving.
4. Then select the "dismiss" or "resign" reason which best matches why the person's leaving.
5. Carefully go through all the steps until you reach the end, where their end employment doc is sent.
6. Next, go to the Person tab (at the top), and to reload the page, tap the "Reload tab" button: (at the top)
7. Then tap: Final payslip
8. Once it slides out on the right, to pay the person's final pay, scroll down and tap: Go to "Pay now" report
9. On the same row as the leaving person's name, you'll see a red circle indicating that it's their final payslip.
10. Then once everything's checked, tap File now, and then: Yes ... file it
11. It usually takes 15 to 20 seconds for HMRC to finish processing the payslips and send back confirmation that it's been received.
12. Also, because it's their final payslip, the person's P45 is also being emailed.
13. The emailing happens automatically, in the background. The P45s are emailed to each persons' personal email as a PDF attachment.
14. Once it's been filed successfully, and the P45s are emailed, you'll see a green tick beside the payslips that you've filed.
15. On most paydays, each person normally only gets one email which contains their payslip PDF.
16. On a final payday, however, each person also gets their P45, as a PDF, which is sent in a second email.
17. Scroll to the bottom of the email to see the P45 attached as a PDF, and tap it to open it.
18. The P45 includes the person's: "Total pay in the employment"
19. And includes the person's: "Total tax in the employment"
20. And finally, it records the person's: "Tax code at leaving date"

Keep in mind that:

• If a person hasn't entered a personal email, their P45 is sent to their work email instead.
• Also, when a person starts their next job, the person needs their P45 to tell their new employer their tax code and other employment details.
• Once a person's P45 is sent, it can't be changed or updated. HMRC requires that there's only one P45 per employment.

And that's it! That's everything you need to know about how a person's P45's are automatically sent!

"P45. How do I find a person's P45, or prove one's been sent?"

Sometimes a person who's left months ago may come back to you asking for another copy of their P45. If so, you'll need to re-download their P45.

2. Then tap: People
3. And then tap the deleted person you're looking for, to open them.

10. And finally, once the P45's downloaded, you can open it as a PDF, or send it on to the person who's requesting it.

"P60. How does a person's P60 get sent each year?"

The P60 shows how much tax a person's paid during the tax year. It's automatically emailed when their last payslip is filed for the end of the tax year.

To pay a person's last payslip in a tax year and send their P60:

1. First, during the month of March, select the person's pay batch on: MenuPay batches
2. Now, on the "To-do" tab, look for: "Payday ... P60s are sent"
3. That payday is the last payslip to be filed before the end of the tax year, ending on April the 5th.
4. Next, tap the payday, so it slides out on the right.
5. Normally you'd pay everyone. But for now, you can untick everyone, and then tick the people you're ready to pay.
6. Then tap File now, and then: Yes ... file it
7. It usually takes 15 to 20 seconds for HMRC to finish processing the payslips and send back confirmation that it's been received.
8. Also, because it's the last payslip before the end of the tax year, each person's P60 is also being emailed.
9. The emailing happens automatically, in the background. The P60s are emailed to each person's personal email as a PDF attachment.
10. Once it's been filed successfully, and the P60s are emailed, you'll see a green tick beside the people that you've paid.
11. On most paydays, each person normally only gets one email which contains their payslip PDF.
12. On the P60 payday, however, each person also gets their P60, as a PDF, which is sent in a second email.
13. Scroll to the bottom of the email to see the P60 attached as a PDF, and tap it to open it.
14. The P60 includes the person's total pay for the year.
15. And finally, it also includes the person's total tax deducted for the year.

Keep in mind that:

• If a person hasn't entered a personal email, their P60 is sent to their work email instead.
• Also, check that your P60 is stored somewhere safe.
• You could later need your P60 to do your tax return, claim tax credits, or claim Universal Credit.
