This article will cover what you need to do to allow Sonovate to manage PAYE on your behalf
Introduction
To process payroll compliantly on your behalf, you will need to give us certain approvals with HMRC and your pension provider.
HMRC agent status
You will need to make us the authorised agent for your PAYE scheme. Once we have your scheme details, we will ask your for authorisation to act as your agent, via the HMRC portal. Once you approve this request, we can begin to process your payroll.
NB you can only have one PAYE agent at a time, so if you already have one (e.g. your accountant) you will either need to remove them, or create a second PAYE scheme with HMRC for your temp workers, and make Sonovate an agent of that.
Pensions delegate authorisation
Every pension system is different. During your onboarding, we will speak to your about how to give us delegate access to your pension provider.
