HMRC have confirmed that a further 310 employer schemes will join the real time information (RTI) pilot following its launch last month.
More than 100,000 employee records have been successfully received by HMRC since ten volunteer employers joined the trial. The additional employers will join between 8 May and the end of June. Stephen Banyard, HMRC’s acting director general for personal tax, said the pilot was gong well.
He added, ‘The whole point of the pilot is to identify any implementation issues. So far, these have been very few and they have been quickly resolved.’
