I do it
As others have said, if you have FA it's dead easy (assuming the accountant has given you the required level of access which I am staring to see caries by practice) if you don'y use FA you can use the HMRC PAYE RTI Tools

Plenty of guides and advice in google as well. There is an API discussion forum as well but that's probably not for you.
If you are going to run your own stuff it would be a good idea to learn the software inside out.

They don't do your VAT either do they? What exactly are they doing for you? Sounds like you are being treated very badly for your money, which I hope is very cheap.

If you use FreeAgent, I'd recommend doing it via that rather than HMRC portal (but you will need to link FreeAgent with your HMRC portal account).
For staff paid the same amount month in month out, payroll is indeed a doddle. Click to create new payslips copying the prior month, click again to submit.
It can however quickly become very painful if there's lots of chopping and changing (leavers/joiners, and payrises/bonuses/commissions/deductions), SMP/SPP/SSP, pensions to consider, plus more general HR stuff etc. Across a year it's always more work when people have what we'd call "proper staff" rather than just the director(s) on an NIC threshold salary each month.

Yes, very easy to do it yourself.
There are free tools on the HMRC website or if you have FA, Xero, SageOne they all have an add on that's about a fiver a month to do the work for you.

Submit PAYE yourself, not accountant.
My accountant proposed a silly charge to submit PAYE for 2 employees.
I seem to remember someone here suggested submitting this yourself is very easy in HMRC's web site.
Can anyone suggest more about that?
My company also has free agent.
Question is: is it very easy to do it yourself?Tags: None
