If your employee doesn’t know their National Insurance number, encourage them to check any documentation received from HMRC or the Department of Work and Pensions (DWP). If they still can’t locate it, they can download Form CA5403 via HMRC Form CA5403, or phone the Registration Helpline on 0845 915 7006.

If the employee has never been issued a National Insurance number, they should phone Jobcentre Plus on 0845 600 0643.

HMRC states that over 80% of data quality problems are caused by holding incorrect information about an employee’s name, date of birth or National Insurance number.

Under PAYE Real Time Information (RTI), the information that you submit to HMRC every time you pay your employees is matched against records HMRC stores on their National Insurance and PAYE Service (NPS).

If the records you submit don’t match, you may trigger creating of duplicate or inaccurate records, which may result in incorrect tax calculations or HMRC compliance checks.

We can help you to make sure the information you hold about your employees is correct so that you can avoid any unnecessary stress.

To make sure you have the correct details for your employees, wherever possible check the information you need from an official source, such as:

HMRC or Department for Work and Pensions documentation

A passport

A birth certificate
