Before you process the pay run with the employee, you must set up a new group for your NEST pension scheme. Once you do receive an NI number for the employee, enter this into their employee record. From that point, process pension contributions as normal, which is after tax. Inform NEST of the circumstances.
Firstly, add a pension group to deduct before tax > - Go to the Pensions tab.
- Select Edit Pension.
- Select Add Group. Complete the details. Use the same details as your original NEST pension group.
- Select Deduct before tax check box.
- Select Default Plan check box.
- Select Save.
- Go to the Pay Runs tab.
- Select Process Pay Run.
- From the Pay Details screen, Select the relevant employee.
 NOTE: The employee is enroled into the new (before tax) scheme. - Enter the payment details.
- Select Next.
NOTE: Payroll will remember which scheme the employee belongs to. - Select the Pensions tab, then select Edit Pension.
- Select View / Edit on the original pension group,
- Select the Default Plan check box.
- Select Save.
Now you can run your payroll as usual. The employee without the NI number has pension deductions before tax. Your other employee's deductions are after tax.
