CSLM10261 - FAQs: employers questions and answers: forms, records and payment: do I need new forms to handle student loans?

Suggested answer

No.

HMRC has introduced new forms for the Student Loans and Postgraduate Loan (PGL) scheme. None of these have to be completed by the employer. They are

  • Start Notice. (form SL1/PGL1) - This is sent to the employer with instructions as to when to start making deductions for a particular employee
  • Stop Notice. (form SL2/PGL2) - This is sent to the employer with instructions as to when to stop making deductions for a particular employee
  • Student Loan and Postgraduate Loan Deduction Tables (Form SL3) - only in very rare circumstances will these need to be used to manually calculate student loan deductions and can be found on gov.uk
