HMRC problem when attempting to file RTI returns- IDs and Passwords

17 July 2023

There is currently a problem with the Government Transaction Engine which is causing RTI submissions to be rejected and for it to report that your User ID and Password is incorrect. Payroll Manager will display a message similar to that below:

HMRC are aware of this issue, and acknowledge it via their @HMRCcustomers Twitter account 

If you are trying to submit a return to HMRC and are seeing this message then we would advise that you try again at a later point. Please do not contact Moneysoft about this issue, as we have no control over HMRC systems.
