Generate a P60 form in QuickBooks Payroll

Learn how to generate a P60 form in QuickBooks Payroll. A P60 is a summary of an employee’s pay and tax information for the tax year ending 5th April. Employers must provide a P60 to all employees still working for them at that date. If an employee has multiple jobs, they will receive a separate P60 for each.

This article is for customers who use QuickBooks Online Core Payroll.

Before you begin

• Ensure your final payroll for the tax year is completed and finalised before generating P60s.
• The P60 shows the employee's taxable pay and tax paid during their employment with you.
• For official guidance, visit the government P60 guide.

Note: A P60 is only issued to employees who are still working for you on 5th April. If an employee left before this date, they should receive a P45 instead.
