What Happens During Year-End Payroll Processing?

The good news? You don’t need to do anything during year-end payroll processing — we handle it all for you.

At Intelligent Payroll, our year-end process is fully automated to ensure compliance, accuracy, and peace of mind.

✅ What We Do at Year-End

When we process your final payroll for the tax year (usually March):

• We automatically close the payroll year

• Generate P60s for all active employees

• Include the P60 summary in your employer reports

• Upload individual P60s to the employee portal

• Notify employees that their P60 is available

📅 When Are P60s Issued?

• P60s are uploaded to the employee portal on 6th April, the first day of the new tax year

• We also include a copy in your final payroll report pack

• By law, P60s must be issued by 31st May, but we provide them much earlier to give you and your team plenty of time

💡 Employees who left before 5th April will not receive a P60 — they’ll already have received a P45.

👤 What Employees See

Each eligible employee will receive an email notification saying:

“Your end of year P60 is now available in your portal. This shows your total earnings and tax paid for the tax year.”

They can log in anytime after 6th April to download their P60 from the Documents section of their portal.

📌 Summary for Employers

• ✅ No forms or uploads required from you

• ✅ P60s are handled automatically

• ✅ Everything is shared directly with employees

• ✅ Your reports will include a full P60 summary
