Obtaining a PAYG payment summary for an employee when employer is using STP
I would like to be able to obtain and print out an employee's PAYG payment summary (ATO now calls these Income Statements) from Xero. I am using STP. Employee does not agree to ATO's terms and conditions in MyGov so can't obtain the PAYG Payment Summary from there and ATO was resistant to posting it to the employee but when finally agreed to do so said it would take 4 weeks!
Hey Ralph, it's not possible in Xero to access and print out income statements from an employee's MyGov account.
Whilst much of the information in an Income Statement comes from the STP filed as an employer, this doesn't allow us to access or provide income statements to employees through Xero.
In these cases we'd really recommend working with the ATO for a resolution, as they'll need to confirm the income statement is 'Tax Ready'.
More on income statements can be found on the ATO website.
