PAYE90035 - Reconcile individual: underpayments: stranded underpayments


Stranded Underpayments are underpayments that cannot be cleared by coding and for which other instructions do not provide a means of collection.

A stranded underpayment includes any potential underpayment that cannot be effectively cleared by coding because the individual has, for example:

  • Ceased employment
  • Died
  • Gone unknown and address RLS or DLO
  • Moved abroad.
