What should I do when an employee reaches state pension age?

Summary

This article will explain what you should do when an employee reaches the State Pension Age once they have proven their age, whether it is via the CA4140 form or a CF384 form or a Passport or Birth Certificate.

More Information

To set the employee up, to show that they have reached the "State Pension Age" you will need to:

• Go to " Payroll Maintenance Options Add or Edit Employeess".
• On 'Employee:' enter the "Employee Code".
• Press <Enter>.
• Select the [Tax, NI and Pension] tab.
• Against 'NI Rate:' enter the code 'C'.
• Press <Esc>.

This will mean that the employee will not pay National Insurance. However the National Insurance Contributions for the Employer will continue. Click here to use the HMRC state pension calculator.
