HMRC is seeking 1,300 employers to join its PAYE Real Time Information pilot next July.
The department has 300 volunteer employers in place for the pilot starting in April 2012. Stephen Banyard, Acting Director General for Personal Tax, said HMRC was confident that it had the capacity to ‘increase the pilot by over 300%’ in July 2012.
Payroll software developers interested in joining the pilot will need to register their interest by next Wednesday, 30 November.
Depending on the success of the initial pilot, HMRC intends to invite 250,000 additional volunteer employers to join RTI from November 2012.
Asked which organisations were participating in the pilot, David Gauke in a Commons written answer that the employers involved were volunteers, chosen to be ‘a representative group of organisations operating PAYE’.
The Exchequer Secretary to the Treasury said: ‘They range in size and complexity from those with one employee to very large complex employers with many employees or pensioners [and] include local government, banks, payroll bureaux and agents, retail and manufacturing, farmers, universities, colleges and schools, charities, hotels, film companies, software developers, pension providers and services companies.’
Guidance on RTI is available on the HMRC website.
