Letter of Representation – P11D Expenses and Benefits

About this document

What it’s for

A letter from an employer to your firm confirming that it has approved the forms P11D and P11D(b) and that its information about benefits in kind and expenses is complete: cars and fuel, loans, accommodation, payrolled benefits, exemptions, amounts made good and any PAYE Settlement Agreement. Includes firm guidance, a tailoring table and a checklist.

When to use it

  • Each year before you submit the P11D and P11D(b) returns
  • When the employer payrolls benefits, now or from April 2027
