Payroll Help
To send Real Time Information submissions the Use Real Time Information option on the Payroll - Utilities - Set Options form must be selected.
This submission verifies an employee’s National Insurance number. NVRs can only be sent two weeks after the first FPS has been submitted for a PAYE scheme. Up to one hundred employees can be included in the same submission. Each employee's address is also included.
HMRC will send you confirmation that the NVR has been received in the same way that you currently receive updates, for example by post or by using the HMRC site. These updates are not displayed in Opera.
When you send HMRC a request via your payroll you will receive a reply which will tell you if the number is right or not, or will provide a number if you haven't got one.
The NINO Verification Request wizard is designed to enable the file for the submission to be quickly created before it is submitted to HMRC using Pegasus Online Filing Manager.
The first page of the wizard includes initial choices for the submission, for example whether the NVR is for new starters only.
The second page is where you choose the employee/s that need to be included in the NVR.
