If your employer has changed your pay, it can result in a correction showing on your next payslip. Here we'll explain how to understand these corrections. If you still have questions, talk to your employer. Payroll corrections are common. They usually happen due to an error made while you processed the pay. Some common examples are: - Missed overtime payments
- Incorrect Tax/NI deductions
- Absence not recorded
- Missed bonus payments
Choose a possible scenario below to find out more. My payslip shows two corrections and one is a negative amount In this case, your employer corrected your pay. The correction happened after they had reported their completed pay run to HMRC. Your pay is the correct amount and your payslip updated. Details of your incorrect pay have been submitted to HMRC. The corrections made get reported to HMRC in the next pay period. This appears as a correction on your payslip.
As you received the correct amount, we need to reverse the one on your payslip. You'll see two corrections for the same amount that cancel each other out. My payslip shows one correction In this case, your employer corrected your pay. The correction happened after they had reported their completed pay run to HMRC. You didn’t receive the correct pay in that pay period. The next period shows the changes made to your pay. You'll see the correction on your current payslip with details of this difference. If underpaid in the last pay run, you’ll see a payment correction. You’ll see a deduction correction if overpaid.
