The tax man is reminding firms that they must use the new A4 version of the P45 from 6 April.
The new version was introduced by HM Revenue & Customs last October and now includes an employee’s date of birth and gender. Any stocks of old A5 versions of the P45 should be destroyed by 6 April, HMRC added.
A spokeswoman added: “The new P45 has real benefits for employers. It will help HMRC match employees’ information to their records and will reduce the number of queries we send employers.”
