The emergency tax code applied to all new starters who are unable to provide a P45 does not change from 1 April. This also means that there will be no increase in any tax codes unless you have received personal tax code notices from HM Revenue & Customs. Employees on this code can still earn £125 per week or £540 per month without paying tax. The threshold for paying NI also stays at £110 per week or £476 per month. However there is a new tax band of 50% for any taxable earnings over £150,000 per year. From 1 April the rate of Statutory Sick Pay is unchanged at £79.15 per week. However the rates for Statutory Maternity Pay, Paternity Pay and Adoption Pay increase to £124.88 per week. Please ensure that these rates are correctly applied where required and that any entitlement to reclaim these payments is correctly made  |
