Where does the reference from the IRD debt letter go in the system?
The letter informing employers to make IRD debt deductions from an employee's pay states a reference to be used.
The reference number provided in the IRD letter is to identify the transaction when the payment is made from a private or business bank account or as a cash deposit.
When paying this IRD debt through Thankyou Payroll the employee's IRD number is linked to the payment when forwarded to IRD and the reference number is not needed.
The reference is not needed when making the payment via Thankyou Payroll as the employee IRD number is attached to each deduction.
