Hi Donna113 Mark_R57

Changes were made to the file format for the New and Departing Employees file format by the IRD after many software providers have released an update for PayDay Filing. As such, this particular information is not required to be lodged until 1st April 2019.

From an MYOB Payroll point of view, we will be releasing an update (2019.1) in the coming period that will allow for the new report format to be generated and also for the compliance changes.

Has anybody found a solution for this problem yet?

It is now past 1 April 2019 and I am still having the exact same problem. I cannot upload the employee start/finish file as the IRD site will not accept the IMS file format. When is the IMS

  Hi Sharpsigns
  Is it that you are not loading this to the correcot location in the IRD website - if you log in and click on Payroll - then look to the top right - File Transfer - then you will see a list of options - one is File Transfer Employee Details. This is where you load that information.

    No, it wasn't that I was trying to upload information to the wrong option as I had no issues uploading the payroll info. I've just rung the help desk and it seems there is a bug in the initial payday filing update and there is a further update that I needed to load: version 6.4 sorts the issue.
