Use the flowchart to review an application under Section 690. It contains links to a number of draft letters you should use depending on the circumstances of the case. These letters are available on SEES Forms and Letters, in the general subdirectory ‘Regulation / Payment letters’.

When an application is accepted, you must take the following action

• Set up an SA record for the employee if there is not one already
• Arrange for an SA return with the non-residence and employment pages to be issued for the year(s) the application covers
• Make an SA note as follows ‘Sec 690 approval given for [year] for earnings from [employer’s name]. PAYE to be operated on [%].’
• If the employee is resident / not ordinarily resident

• • Amend their tax code to remove the basic personal allowance (and blind person’s allowance if claimed)

• Place all the Section 690 papers in an SA Post batching range
