UIF reference number and IRP5 for employee under threshold



1. Do I need to create an IRP5 certificate for an empoyee that earns under the threshold?2. I am registered for PAYE - and was told I will be automatically registered for UIF. However I cannot add a UIF amount in my IRP5 certificates because it asks for a UIF reference number. Where can I get my UIF reference numberTHANKS so much

Your UIF number should be on the document confirming PAYE registration sent to your by SARS. You can call 0800 00 7277 to request it or you can drop the 7 of the PAYE and replace it with a U.

Thanks Tim

One more question

1. Do I need to create an IRP5 certificate for an employee that earns under the threshold? if so under which code do I capture their income 3601 or 3602?

Again Thanks in advance

You would capture their income as 3601 and yes you would need to create one.
