Pay employee and employer pension contributions and deficit payments by Bankers Automated Clearing System (BACS) by the 22nd day of each month following the payroll run.
The i-Connect submission for each payment must reach us three days before the BACS payment. This allows us to correctly allocate the contributions paid and ensure the information held by the Actuary is accurate and up to date.
