As per FRCA requirements for the year 2013, all employers are now required to:
- Send an electronic file to FCRA in a specific format which contains details of wages, PAYE deductions etc. paid to all employees (including employees who do not pay PAYE)
- Lodge a printed report along with payment for any PAYE due.
The first electronic file for the month of January is due in
2 days (28th February).
PayMaker users who have upgraded to the latest
version 4.5.90 can do both of the above from inside PayMaker.
The latest version of PayMaker has been
certified by FRCA to be compliant with
ALL the requirements for 2013.

- Select the "Month" from the drop-down
