Self Employed (ILR)Difference in payslip vs actual withdrawa

[keepsmilinyaar]

HI,
Hoping anyone can help here.
I had setup a direct debit from my company account for my salary and this was the tax efficient salary of 663 for year 2014-15, and I didnt change until last month (which is when i realised it was wrong). My payslips were being generated via the online accountancy system and was being filed with HMRC with the new tax efficient salary of 671. So here lies the discrepancy. My company and personal statements will show £663 while my payslips from Apr-15 onwards until Aug-15 will show £671. I have added a dividend payment to my previous earnings making my total salary more than £50,000 so technically dont really need the Apr-15 to Aug-15 salary earnings to qualify. But am not sure whether I should include it or not, because when the caseworker will look at my personal and company statements they might feel something amiss.

Can you advise what is the best possible approach ?
1. Should this discrepancy reflect in my accountant's letter ?
2. If my accountant disagrees (as theortically i can do whatever with my business account until the time of company account filing) - can i add this discrepancy to the cover letter myself ?

Any other thoughts ??

thank you for your help in advance.

Regards
Rahul

I have seen many cases where salary withdrawal were different from actual figures submitted to HMRC, even the payment date were different and withdrawl date different. Just transfer the difference from business to personal account with reference as balancing salary payment. should be ok

Thanks jibri for this really really quick response.

Would you think it's even worth a mention on the cover letter ?or leave it ?

If you saying you don't really need the salary for the month in question, I don't think you should mention it in letter. are you sending these payslips ?

U r right.....cw r not much qualified outside their guidelines.....so giving unnecessary explanation leads confusion for cw.....u dont need to explain any payment entry which u r not claiming towards ur income band....thanks

I was planning to send all payslips only because I thought they might wonder. But since I don't need to claim I will not mention it .

Thanks for all your help.
