To be eligible for Statutory Maternity Pay (SMP), you must have a full-time employment contract with a company that pays you through PAYE and deducts National Insurance and tax for you. You'd also have to have worked for that company for at least 26 weeks at the 15th week before your baby is due.

If your employer doesn't give you form SMP1 Your employer should give you form SMP1 within: 7 days of saying they won't pay your statutory maternity pay and. 28 days of when you tell them you'll be taking maternity leave.

To reclaim the payments, include them in an Employer Payment Summary ( EPS ) to HM Revenue and Customs ( HMRC ). You can write to the PAYE Employer Office to ask for a repayment if you cannot set off the payments against the current year's liabilities. You cannot do this until the start of the next tax year.

The majority of employers can reclaim from the Government 92% of all amounts of statutory maternity pay (SMP) that they have paid out. Reimbursement is achieved by deducting the gross amounts of SMP paid from the total amount of national insurance contributions due for the relevant tax month.

To apply for the advance, you'll need to have your Unique Taxpayer Reference number ( UTR ) or VAT reference number in your Business Tax Account. You can add this from your account homepage.
