Complex PAYE/NIC issues

 

Common PAYE and NIC Compliance Challenges

Employers often face difficulties in several key areas, including:

  • PAYE and NIC on termination payments, shares and options

  • Taxation of benefits in kind and third-party benefits

  • Disputes over employment status and agency worker payments

  • Processing PAYE for overseas staff not on the UK payroll

Failure to correctly manage these can result in over-taxing employees or HMRC penalties for underpayment.

Management Consultant, Oil & Gas

I needed some specialist tax advice in respect of a complicated capital reduction demerger, a partial buyout of my company. Without specialist advice the tax hit was going to be huge.

TAP Advisory were recommended to me by my accountant, and my solicitor was also very complimentary about TAP when they found out we would be working with them. Tap's reputation preceded them.

The fees TAP charged were reasonable in my eyes, and small in comparison to the money they saved me, I was VERY grateful for the advice and guidance.

TAP were great to deal with throughout, they kept me in the loop in laymans terms and liaised well with the other professionals looking after my interests.

I could not recommend them enough in respect of their extensive knowledge and experience.

In our company we see our TAP contact very much as one of our team. For example we see him as more of a part time employee than a service provider. To this extent he has always acted into his manner available whenever we need him and on demand. I have never thought of TAP as having other clients (even though I know they have), because the client servicing is amazing.
