If the combined National Insurance contributions and PAYE payments for your employees and sub-contractors averages less than £1,500 a month, then Quarterly Payment Scheme can be setup.
Normal PAYE Scheme:
Yearly Payment
If all payments on which tax and NICs are due are paid to your employees annually in a single tax month, you can ask HMRC to be treated as an 'annual payer'. You must use the same month every year, so if this changes or you start paying your employees more frequently, you will need to tell HMRC.

Solution to Avoid Common Mistakes
1. PAYE Office Reference Number used in place of PAYE Reference Number;
2. P14 form template used instead of P60 to hand out to employees;
3. Hand out the correct P60 to the correct employee. Mistakes happen when two employees have the same initial and surname;
4. Enter the correct National Insurance Numbers for all the employees, otherwise the State Pension benefit will not accrue;
5. Ask the employee to confirm his/her current address, to ensure the address on the P60 is correct. If P60 is to be posted out to the employee then it will reach the correct address.
