The PAYE Modernisation Project will involve the most significant reform of the PAYE system since its introduction in 1960. Employers will need to calculate and report their employees’ pay and deductions as they are being paid. This will make it easier to deduct and pay at the right time the correct amounts of:
Income Tax
Pay Related Social Insurance
Universal Social Charge
Local Property Tax.
Let us handle your payroll and send to revenue as required every payday.
Things I Can Do
SMART PAYE
Revenue, employers and employees will have the most accurate, up to date information relating to pay and statutory payroll. This will ensure the correct amounts of Income Tax, Pay Related Social Insurance, Universal Social Charge and Local Property Tax are:
deducted at the right time
deducted from the right employees
paid by employers in the correct amount of deductions for every employee.
This will improve the accuracy, ease of understanding and transparency of the PAYE system for all stakeholders.
SMART PAYE sets out the key design principles of the project.
By working to these principles throughout the design stages, we can ensure the:
project meets its objective
benefits for all stakeholders are easily identifiable.
