New NI, PAYE and Statutory Payments rates and bands

The late call for a general election has delayed the release of the budget for financial year 2020/2021. The government have since confirmed that the budget will be delivered on 11th March 2020.

The budget defines the proposed changes to a range of factors affecting payroll, and therefore this will delay the delivery of the details.

The new Rates & Bandwidths will be released in a separate guide Payroll_Upgrade_2020_Rates_Bands_Guide.pdf available on the Pegasus Help Centre.
