2. Add yourself as a scheme administrator to a pension scheme
2.1 Schemes in existence before 6 April 2006
Schemes that were approved by HMRC before 6 April 2006 will have automatically been added to Pension schemes online as a registered pension scheme unless the scheme opted out. The scheme will have been allocated a superannuation fund (SF) reference number in the format 000/000000/000000/A. This is a numerical reference with a random letter at the end. Depending on the age of the scheme you may have a reference that looks slightly different.
Although the legislation set out who the scheme administrator was at 6 April 2006, in many cases this information was not held by HMRC at the time. If you were the administrator of a scheme at 5 April 2006 and have not already told HMRC, you바카라 사이트™ll need to add yourself to the scheme on Pension schemes online.
If you became the scheme administrator on or after 6 April 2006 and your scheme administrator ID begins with 바카라 사이트˜A0바카라 사이트™, you바카라 사이트™ll need to add yourself to the scheme on Pension schemes online.

4.1 About authorised practitioners
A scheme administrator of a registered pension scheme can authorise a practitioner to deal with the day to day affairs of the pension scheme. Anyone the scheme administrator wants HMRC to deal with or to give information to 바카라 사이트” including access to the scheme records 바카라 사이트” will need to be authorised as a practitioner on Pension schemes online. This is important as HMRC will use the online service to send notifications to the practitioner if they바카라 사이트™re authorised to receive information. If the practitioner바카라 사이트™s details are not available HMRC will not be able to confirm their identity or deal with them.
HMRC requires authority from a scheme administrator before a practitioner can submit information to HMRC online. It is acceptable for a practitioner to submit a report or return on behalf of a scheme administrator provided that before they submit the report or return they have the approval of the scheme administrator to both the content of the report and to the submission. This is necessary as they바카라 사이트™ll need to declare that the scheme administrator named in the submission has approved the content of the report or return and its submission. A practitioner will be unable to go online to see any information relating to the pension scheme or make amendments to any report or return for that scheme that has been submitted by anyone else unless authority to do so has been granted from the scheme administrator on Pension schemes online.
