How to use the employment intermediaries template

Question 1

1. Format and layout

Accepted Answer

You must use the report template to provide HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) with workers바카라 사이트� details. You must enter the information in the correct format.

You should use a fresh template for each report submitted so that data from previous reports cannot corrupt your latest report.

You바카라 사이트檒l be able to send reports that contain formatting errors and missing data but you may receive a penalty if your reports are late, incomplete or incorrect.

You must use the employment intermediaries service to upload and send your reports.

You can upload and send up to 13 reports at a time and as many reports as you need to throughout the reporting period. You can decide how frequently you upload and send your reports. This could be weekly, monthly, once for each period, or whatever fits in best with how you work.

Each report must:

contain employment intermediary information and at least 1 record of worker information
be an ODS or CSV file
be smaller than 20MB - you can split reports into many files and upload them
have a name that is 200 characters or less - there are no other rules on what to call your reports
only contain 1 sheet
not be password protected

You must not alter the layout of the template in any way that would change the order or content of:

column A, rows 1 to 6
row 7
columns A to Y, row 8
