Final Submission of the Tax Year (FSY)

Use

At the end of the tax year, you must submit a "Final Submission of the Tax Year (FSY)" to HMRC. This could be done either by submitting a Final Full Payment Submission (Final FPS) or by submitting a Final Employer Payment Summary (Final EPS).

FSY via FPS (Final FPS): Final FPS submissions should be submitted to HMRC on or before your last pay date of the tax year which is 5 April. If you are late with your Final FPS submission you have time, until the 19th April to get it submitted. After this, any further employee PAYE changes need to be reported on an EYU (Earlier Year Update). You will have to indicate ‘Yes’ in the ‘Final Submission for Year’ field in Final FPS spreadsheet. If you run more than one payroll under the same PAYE scheme reference (eg for employees you pay weekly and monthly), include the end-of-year information in your last report.

FSY via EPS (Final EPS): You should e-file your FSY via EPS instead of an FPS if any of the following conditions apply:

Final EPS submissions should be submitted to HMRC by 19th April. HMRC will still accept a Final EPS after the 19th but you may incur late filing penalties. You will have to indicate ‘Yes’ in the ‘Final Submission for Year’ field in the Final EPS spreadsheet. You may answer the optional end-of-year questions in the Final EPS spreadsheet.
