Problem

When rerunning the calculation for certain prior year returns (2018-2020) the amount of Self Employment income has increased, and the difference is the amount of the 2021 SEISS grant. This may occur in the following circumstances:

Resolution

1. The HMRC Data Retrieve function was used while running version 21.3.201 of PTP Tax Platform
2. The client had a Self Employment trade in the 2021 year which was linked to prior years
3. There was an SEISS grant for that client

The grant was being applied to the oldest year instead of the 2021 year behind the scenes.

The original problem was corrected in the Winter Release 21.4.25.  Any incorrect values will be removed in the Spring Service Pack release.  In the meantime, if any returns need to be amended urgently, please contact Support on 0344 815 5530 or ptpsupport@iris.co.uk to apply a data fix for the affected client.
