Initial action

  1. In all cases you must use Function VIEW EMPLOYER NOTES and check the employer record pad to review the information recorded and make a brief note on the list of the last action taken for that particular work item

  2. If form P28 has been issued check if you have received a reply from the Debt Management Office

  • If not use Function AMEND EMPLOYER INDICATORS to set the INSTIND(1) indicator on the employer record
  • Send a reminder to the Debt Management Office
  • Go to step 7

If a reply has been received
  • Go to step 3

Reviewing the work items

  1. Consider the last action taken in dealing with the overpayment

  • If all necessary action has been taken go to step 7
  • If no action has been taken, or further action is required go to step 4
  1. You must check the amount of the overpayment notified in Early Morning Output (EMO), or claimed by the employer, to ensure it is correct

  • Use Function VIEW BROCS and select EMPLOYER DATA YEAR SUMMARY (Format 2) to check the amount shown in the COLL field agrees with the amount claimed / notified to you, and take a screen print
  • If the amount is £500.00 or less and you have not received a request for repayment or reallocation from the employer / contractor follow the instructions at Step 7 in the Action Guide ‘Overpayment Notification’ PAYE47061
  • If the amount agrees go to step 6
  • If the amount does not agree go to step 5
  1. If the amount does not agree then your next action will depend on whether a revised overpayment arises or if there is now no overpayment

No overpayment

  • Use Function AMEND EMPLOYER NOTES to record details of the notification and file it away along with the screen print in the employer record pad
  • If the claim has been received from the employer write to advise them of the position
  • Go to step 7
Revised overpayment

  • Note the revised amount on the notification and go to step 6
  1. Follow the instructions at PAYE47061 if you are required to

  • Reconcile the overpayment
  • Contact the employer
Or
  • Refer the overpayment to the appropriate Debt Management Office

Final action

  1. If you are able to re-allocate or repay the overpayment cross through the case on the monthly list

Otherwise
  • Make a brief note on the Control List of the last action taken to clear the scheme
  • Keep the list under review until the next list is received
  • Move on to the next work item
