The IRD are running a series of webinars in relation to the new rules around payday.  If you go to the IRD website (www.ird.govt.nz) and follow the links, you will be able to select a webinar that will keep you up to date with payday filing and the IRD's transformation.

Payday filing in a nutshell

From 1 April 2019 employers must:

•  File employment information every payday instead of an Employer monthly schedule (IR348).
•  Provide new and departing employees' address information, as well as their date of birth - if they have provided it to you.
• File electronically (from payday compatible software or through myIR) if your annual PAYE/ESCT is $50,000 or more.

Note: The due date for payment remains the same at the 20th of the month (or 5th and 20th of the month for twice-monthly filers).

If you have any other questions in relation to payday filing, call Jemma.
