Default P60

Is there a last date that these are issued by. It seems to be taking a
long time coming this year.

The rules say 31st May. But as a duplicate copy (called P14) has to be
filed at HMRC by the employer by 19th May, there's little excuse to delay
giving out P60s.

That said, (a) the P60 contains no information which isn't also on your
final pay-slip of the tax year. And if you want it for tax return purposes,
and also expect a P11D (or P9D), that isn't req'd until 6 July.

All a bit daft, frankly, and ripe for a bit of Dave's cost-cutting... :-)

My employer just staples it to the monthly salary notification/payslip
so I get it whenever they normally issue the payslip i.e. a few days
ago.

Where is the employer's tax office name and reference on the payslip?

That's not to mention a lot of national insurance information

Also most payslips don't give the employer's and employee's address!

I get lots of clients who lose the P60 and give me a payslip instead
and think that's enough.

It isn't - but that's irrelevant unless, as I mentioned, you want it for
SATR purposes. In which case (a) it's of no use until you get your P11D and
(b) unless you've just changed jobs, it's on last year's P60 (and on your
file copy of last year's SATR). (The OP appears not have changed jobs,
since he mentions "... this year...", as if it contrasts with same employer,
last year.

That's not to mention a lot of national insurance information


And what use is that? EE's NICs are on pay-slip, and are only relevant if
you've changed job and want to check the full year's NICs. But you can only
find "old job's" NICs from pay-slips, not from the P45.

Also most payslips don't give the employer's and employee's address!


Well - if they don't know that, they're not likely to understand the P60
anyway :-)

My pension company ceased monthly pay slips last year, unless we
specifically opted for them to continue. I didn't bother...

I watch my bank account carefully, and I know the gross amount, and
calculate that they only deduct what tax is due.

An additional point is that payslips don't have to give the cumulative
totals to date of pay and tax. Most do of course (printed straight from
the payroll software) but when I worked I occasionally had ad hoc
payments with manuscript payslips showing only the statutory minimum.

Then, as indicated by another poster, there is no statutory requirement
for pension payers to provide payslips.

This is not to argue against rationalisation/deregulation but as so
often with such things there would be winners and losers from abolishing
the P60 and a need for some consequential changes.
