Originally started in readiness for 2021, PAYadvice.UK are constructing its popular PAYadvice Series Legislation Update 2024 for payroll.
We believe that PAYadvice was the first organisation in the UK to bring together the various resources needed by payroll professional and payroll software developers in preparation for the April 2021 through April 2023 changes, even to the extent of other organisation also reproducing PAYadvice.UK developed information and copies of tables within their own publications.
We were bold enough to take the resources that were publicly released and make predictions of values yet to be confirmed. Almost all predictions came to fruition with a few adjustments.
This is a compilation of the indicated and confirmed changes due for 2024 for the United Kingdom, Channel Islands and the Isle of Man, along with proposals and some predictions. As more detail is announced and confirmed, updated versions will be issued.
As announcement are made, the guide will be updated and adjusted.
The following table indicates the current status of whether something is confirmed, waiting or predicted:
| Legislation update item | Status |
| Real Time Information changes | Confirmed |
| UK Income Tax Allowance | Awaited but indicated as frozen |
