Client is £8 short on NI Contributions to receive ESA, does anyone know any possible way around this, any ideas appreciated.
Any periods on SSP where no conts credited? Employers don’t always credit for periods on SSP. Checked earnings against conts to ensure they’re accurately calc’d?
Ed Cheers, am doing that right now with employer. Thanks
I would also find out whether the client has terminated employment during the relevant tax year and, if so, check that the employer concerned has paid over their contributions. I have personal experience of an employer who neglected to send in NI contributions for all employees who had left employment during that year. The error came to light 3 years later when someone claimed a contributory benefit.
