Employers that have incorrectly calculated their furlough claim or have received more money than they should have done have less than a week left to inform HMRC of their error or face an investigation.
HMRC have explained in their risk assessment they are not going to set out to try to find employers who have made legitimate mistakes in compiling their claims, because this is obviously something new that everybody had to get to grips within a very short time period.
For business owners, the key thing now would be to double-check the amounts claimed are right. It’s also worth making sure the paperwork is accurate and government guidelines have been followed ( despite the numerous grey areas we’ve all had to work through!).
