I'm fillling out the form on HMRC's website for employers advance fundiong of SMP and i'm trying to ascertain what i should put in the box entitled
'Tax and National Insurance Contributions deducted'.
It asks for a figure (£) to 2 decimal places, if anyone could help with what i should be entering here i would be very appreciative!

    Thank you very much, would i calculate this from the Subtotal of the claim ( total weeks at ERR + total weeks at SR) or from the total claim amount (total weeks at ERR + total weeks at SR + compensation for small employers relief).
    Apologies, i'm trying to learn as i go and don't want to submit something incorrect to HMRC!

    It is the amount to be deducted from the SMP paid to the employee. You need to calculate that.

    Isn't the online claim service working? https://www.gov.uk/government/publi...-parental-paternal-adoption-and-maternity-pay

    It is working, this is what i an attempting to fill out at the moment.
    I have filled out the date of birth,last date of claim in current tax year,the earnings related rate and number of weeks,standard rate and number of weeks,
    This gives me the Total SR payable and the subtotal of the claim,
    Compensation for small employers relief is added to this giving the total amount claimed and then its asks for the Total amount of tax and national insurance contributions deducted, this is the figure i am trying to figure out,
    At the moment i am assuming that i should calculate the tax and national insurance contributions from the subtotal before the small business compensation is added,
    So then i will just need to figure out what the percentages would be on this figure for category A contributions.

    You cannot calculate tax and NI deductions from a total figure. You need to do it for every pay period.
