Does it matter if they are sent to Shipley or Cumbernauld?
We have had reports from practitioners that in the absence of payslips, they do not know where to send tax payments, and it wastes time finding out. We have contacted HMRC which has provided the following useful information.
All tax payments should now be sent to the following address at Shipley:
HM Revenue and Customs Accounts Office
BRADFORD
BD98 1YY
However, note that cheques will still reach HMRC if either:
- payment is sent to the Cumbernauld address, or
- the old pre-paid envelopes with slightly different postcodes are used.
Speedy and effective processing will be aided if you use the client-specific payslip with the relevant barcode. If the payslip is not available, note that HMRC is shortly going to issue a blank payslip (SA361) which you can use. It will be published on the HMRC and we will publish a link as soon as it is available.
