STP Phase 2 - transition after EOPY 2021

Hi, We are planning on changing to STP 2 from 1 July. Will we need to finalise payroll for 2020-2021 (in STP 1) before we changeover? Thanks, Jenny

Hi Jen_M,

Thank you for your post.

You can change over to STP Phase 2 anytime before our deferral date - 1 January 2023.

If you wish to transition from 1 July, you don't need to finalise your payroll before doing this.

If you have any further queries on this, please let me know.

Hi Sam_R ,

I understand that we can transition to STP 2 at any time. However, I have been told recently that if we transition to STP 2 before finalising wages for 2021-2022, we will then need to finalise our 21-22 payroll in STP 2 using STP 2 reporting. Is this correct? We are still reporting under STP 1 to the end of this month and will have new payroll categories for the disaggregation of gross for STP 2.

Thanks,
Jenny

  Hi Jen_M,
  
  Apologies for the delayed reply.
  
  Correct! If you were wanting to finalise your 21-22 payroll in STP Phase 1, you'll have to transition to STP Phase AFTER you've finalised.
  
  If you had any further queries, please do reach out.
