    Payroll - week 53
    Hi

    I have inherited doing PAYE for a firm with one employee, the treasurer left and we've split the role. I had never seen the forms you have to complete before, I sat and worked out how it all worked and finished off last years forms BUT didn't fill in the week 53 option - which I now realise I should have done.

    Our employee gets paid on a Thursday - the year end was on a Sunday - by not completing week 53 on the form there were more earnings, tax and NI to add but I've sent all the forms in already without completing week 53.

    What should I do?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks

    Every employer tax document has an amendment option, either on the original form or with a form that is a variant of the original form.

    For the state, contact the state tax department and ask for help. Most state agencies deal with these kinds of problems all of the time and will offer you the help you need.

    For the IRS, you should start by searching the IRS website (Internal Revenue Service) to determine which amendment forms you need. You can download both the forms and the structions in PDF form direct from the website.
