ANSWER ID:12218KiwiSaver adds to the amount of information that has to be sent to the IRD each month. Almost all of this information can now be sent to the IRD via ir-File, rather than by paper, especially if you also pay the PAYE, Child Support, Student Loan and KiwiSaver deductions from your employees' wages electronically. MYOB Payroll has been designed to take full advantage of ir-File. We strongly recommend registering for ir-File, as this is the simplest and most efficient way to comply with IRD filing requirements. See Filing to the IRD for more information. The only information that must still be sent by paper is Employer Monthly Schedule (EMS) amendments. If these are small the IRD can be advised of these by phone. The following procedure should be adopted each month: At the end of each month: If manually filing in the IRD supplied EMS or the IR345 and IR346, negative figures should be filled as zeros.
Since there are now up to three files created each month, these are put into a sub-folder for that month in the ir-File location specified in Tools > Options. They are also zipped up into a single file so that only a single file needs to be transferred to the IRD instead of three.
