Government must update the CJRS Directive to include: (1) 5.(a).i is amended to make a submission made in 2018-19 tax year allowable, if the employer is using the annual scheme (2) If employer is registered on the annual scheme as of 19/03/20, they may claim if RTI submission received by 19/04/20
Limited company directors on the annual payroll scheme for PAYE have been excluded from the 'furlough' 80% salary claim scheme, if they made their once-a-year RTI submission after 19th Mar. Most will have submitted after, as standard deadline is 5th April!! This is a huge injustice. This must surely be a genuine oversight. This is not a case of a few people slipping through the cracks of a 'furlough' scheme that can never be perfect - this is an entire group of people that includes small company owners.
