The Government has announced the benefit-in-kind charges for employer-provided vans and fuel for the 2027-28 tax year.

From 6 April 2027, the van benefit charge will increase to £4,310, while the van fuel benefit charge will increase to £825. The car fuel benefit charge multiplier will rise to £30,200.

Where fuel is provided for private use, the taxable car fuel benefit is calculated by applying the vehicle’s appropriate percentage to the fuel benefit charge multiplier. For example, a car with an appropriate percentage of 37% would have a taxable fuel benefit of £11,174 (£30,200 x 37%)

The changes follow the Government’s commitment to uprate the charges in line with the September Consumer Price Index (CPI).

HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) has published new Guidelines for compliance (GfC22) to help employers and pay professionals avoid common Real Time Information (RTI) reporting errors that can lead to disputed PAYE charges.

An RTI disputed charge arises when HMRC’s records do not match an employer’s payroll records. These discrepancies can result in unnecessary debt collection activity, underpayments, overpayments and time-consuming investigations while records are corrected.

The guidance focuses on the most common causes of RTI discrepancies and provides practical advice on how to prevent them. In particular, HMRC highlights issues such as:

duplicate employee records
incorrect starter and leaver processing
payroll ID changes
PAYE mergers and successions
reporting under the wrong PAYE scheme
payments made using the incorrect references
National Insurance category errors.
A significant theme throughout the guidance is the importance of maintaining accurate employee data. HMRC notes that errors involving names, dates of birth, National Insurance numbers and payroll IDs can result in duplicate employment records being created, which may affect PAYE liabilities and employees’ tax and benefit claims.

For pay professionals, the guidance provides a practical checklist of the areas most likely to create discrepancies between payroll records and HMRC’s systems. Reviewing existing controls against the issues highlighted in the guidance may help reduce the risk of disputes, corrections and additional administrative burdens.

19 October 2026: CIPP NEWS

The Pensions Dashboards Programme (PDP) , part of the Money and Pensions Service (MaPS), has launched a new Dashboards hub designed to provide organisations with a single source of information to support their operational readiness for pensions dashboards.

The PDP is responsible for developing the pensions dashboards ecosystem and the MoneyHelper Pensions Dashboard, working with Government, regulators, pension providers and pension schemes to help individuals access information about their workplace, personal and State Pension all in one place.

The new hub will be a central source of information on dashboard progress, including launch plans, user testing and the development of the private sector dashboard.

Current plans indicate that the MoneyHelper Pensions Dashboard will be available to the public in the 2027/28 financial year, with industry set to receive at least six months’ notice ahead of the launch.

The hub also confirms that FCA-regulated organisations will be able to develop and host their own private sector dashboards in the future, extending access to pensions information through digital platforms people already use. The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has confirmed that the MoneyHelper dashboard will launch first, with private sector dashboards following later. This phased approach will allow lessons learned from the development and operation of the MoneyHelper dashboard to inform the rollout of subsequent dashboards.

The hub also includes video walkthroughs of the dashboard, giving organisations an opportunity to understand how pension information will be displayed to users and how the dashboard experience is evolving through testing.

PDP has said the hub will continue to be updated as the programme progresses, providing organisations with the latest information to support their operational readiness.

HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) is encouraging people with outstanding loan charge liabilities to consider the new settlement scheme that could significantly reduce the amount they have to pay.

What is a loan charge liability?

A loan charge liability is broadly tax due in connection with income received through certain disguised remuneration arrangements, typically where earnings were paid in the form of loans that were not expected to be repaid. HMRC says these payments are still income and may be subject to Income Tax and National Insurance contributions.

The scheme is available to individuals and employers with a disguised remuneration loan charge liability that has not been paid in full.

This can include Income Tax, National Insurance contributions and late-payment interest arising:

•because of the loan charge, normally in the tax year ending 5 April 2019
when the relevant income, normally in the form of loans, was received in earlier tax years

•because of the loan charge and included in a settlement agreed after 1 June 2021.

HMRC will write to people they believe are eligible with an offer setting out the information used to calculate the settlement and the amount due.

Subject to a maximum £70,000 reduction, the settlement offer can:

•use a simplified calculation to determine an amount representing the tax and National Insurance contributions due

•provide a reduction for promoter fees
deduct a further £5,000 from the liability

•exclude late-payment interest, Inheritance Tax liabilities and most penalties applied to the original loan charge amount.

Some individuals may therefore receive an offer requiring £0 payment.

However, even where nothing is due, the acceptance form must be signed and returned to HMRC and once accepted it becomes a legally binding contract.

Where an employer was responsible for deducting PAYE, HMRC will generally try to settle the loan charge liability with the employer first, provided the company still exists. The employee will receive an offer at the same time and can either accept it immediately or wait while HMRC attempts to settle with the employer. In these circumstances, waiting will not cause the employee to lose the opportunity to settle.

Taxpayers who cannot pay the settlement in one payment should contact HMRC before accepting the offer. Payment in instalments may be agreed for up to five years under the new terms, with a longer period potentially available on individual circumstances, but interest will apply to instalment payments.

Before accepting an offer, individuals should check:

•whether they agree with the figures in the offer

•whether they can pay the amount in full or need a payment arrangement

•whether an employer may be responsible for some of the liability
which liabilities are covered by the settlement.

Anyone who disagrees with the figures or should contact HMRC before accepting the offer.

It is important to note that HMRC is not required to make offers to those they suspect of being promoters or introducers of avoidance arrangements.

HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) has temporarily paused checks requiring some tax advisers to provide their Agent Reference Number (ARN) when contacting them by telephone or webchat.

Since 18 August 2026, some businesses have been asked to provide their ARN ( Agent Reference Number ) so HMRC can check whether they have registered for an Agent Services Account (ASA) as part of their rollout of mandatory tax adviser registration.

As a reminder, businesses that interact with HMRC about someone else’s tax affairs and are paid for doing so may need to register as a tax adviser and meet the registration conditions. These include having Anti-money laundering supervision in place.

Registration is being introduced in stages. Payroll-only service providers without an ASA fall within the registration period running from the 18 November 2026 to 17 February 2027, although some may already have registered. Providers offering wider tax or accountancy services may fall within an earlier registration period/

HMRC has said checks have been paused until 17 November 2026 to give more time to prepare for this requirement. Advisers may be asked for their ARN in other circumstances during the pause, while existing security, identity and client-authorisation checks will continue as normal.

An ARN is an 11-character reference made up of four letters, including ‘ARN’ followed by seven digits, for example XARN1234567. It can be found on the organisation’s ASA homepage.

Apprenticeship: 01 October 2026: CIPP share this news below:

HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) is reminding apprentices to check they are being paid at least the National Minimum Wage (NMW), which increased on 1 April 2026. This includes all the time they spend working or training.

Employers are able to check the Calculating the minimum wage - Guidance - GOV.UK, to ensure that their workers are paid correctly, meet their legal responsibilities and avoid breaking the law.

What rate should you be on?

If you’re in your first year of your apprenticeship, you are legally entitled to at least the Apprentice NMW pay rate of £8 per hour.

The apprenticeship rate is payable to apprentices if they are:

• under 19 years of age

• aged over 19 who are in the first year of their apprenticeship

• the rate applicable to their age band (if they are over 19 and have completed the first year of their apprenticeship).

If you are aged 19 or over and have completed the first year of your apprenticeship, you are legally entitled to the higher National Living and Minimum Wage rates relevant to your age group.

28 September, 2026:

As we enter a new season and weather is changing and its temperatures are dropping, flu season approaching, you may be considering getting your annual flu jab.

From 6 April 2026, new tax and National Insurance Contributions (NICs) rules have made it easier and more flexible for employers to provide seasonal flu vaccinations to their employees. The changes introduce a specific tax exemption for employer-provided flu vaccinations and allow employers to reimburse employees for the cost of their vaccination without creating an Income Tax or Class 1 NICs liability, where the relevant conditions are met.

Previously, there was no specific Income Tax exemption for flu vaccinations. Directly provided vaccinations could potentially qualify under the trivial benefits rules where the relevant conditions were met, but the rules did not provide the same treatment for employee reimbursements. This seemingly discouraged implementation of such arrangements due to the extra administration, particularly for small businesses, employers with hybrid workers, and organisations with employees working from home.

From 6 April 2026, the same Income Tax exemption can apply whether the employer arranges the vaccination directly, pays the provider, provides a voucher or reimburses the employee for the cost.

Where the relevant conditions are satisfied, the exemption applies automatically, helping employers offer flu vaccinations in a way that better suits their workforce. However, employers should be aware that the exemption does not apply where the vaccination is provided through a salary sacrifice arrangement.

News Update:

22 September 2026

The Department for Business, Innovation, Science and Trade has published a press release today announcing new statutory rights to bereavement leave, including specific provision for pregnancy loss.

Women and their partners who experience a pregnancy loss before 24 weeks, including miscarriage, terminations and unsuccessful IVF embryo transfer, will be entitled to up to two weeks of unpaid leave. The entitlement will also extend to the other biological parent and intended parents in a surrogacy arrangement, recognising that pregnancy loss can affect the wider family.

Additionally, from April 2027, employees who lose a spouse or partner, parent, adult child or sibling will also have a day-one statutory right to bereavement leave. Importantly, the provisions will recognise a broader range of family relationships, step, half, adoptive, kinship care and foster relationships, extending protection to employees who may currently have no statutory entitlement to bereavement leave.

The new entitlement is intended to provide families with greater security and the time and space to mourn their loved ones. Though many employers are understanding of this terrible situation and already provide employee’s paid leave, this remains discretionary. Introducing a statutory entitlement provides a consistent baseline level of protection for employees in those extremely difficult and vulnerable moments.

There are also important practical details for employers and payroll professionals. The leave will be capable of being taken flexibly within 56 weeks of the loss, including as individual days rather than one continuous block. Employees taking leave within the first eight weeks will only need to notify their employer as soon as reasonably practicable, and evidence of the loss will not be required. Employees exercising their statutory entitlement will also be protected from detriment or dismissal. The changes are expected to be introduced through secondary legislation and come into force in April 2027.

The government is also undertaking a thorough review of the parental leave and pay system, including areas such as ‘Hugh’s Law’ and the rights of parents with terminally ill children.

21 September 2026:

Following HMRC request for views on views of how PAYE Agreement Settlements were used in practise:

The research highlighted a number of recurring issues, including uncertainty over which expenses and benefits qualify for PSA treatment, the administrative burden of gathering and validating information, complex calculations and a lack of digitalisation in the process.

Drawing on the evidence received, the CIPP is proposing a number of areas for consideration including:

• Comprehensive digitalisation of the PSA process including visibility of liabilities

• Greater clarity around PSA eligibility
simplification of PSA calculations

- A review of the £50 trivial benefits exemption and the £150 annual social event exemption

• Improved HMRC administration and specialist support

- Clearer guidance, worked examples and practical decision making tools.
