We’ve had an increase in emails from members whose employers have moved to Monthly Data Collection over the last 12 months, querying why they have missing service on their record from 01/04/2016 or 06/04/2016 to the date their employer went live on MDC.

It’s important, if you moved to live mid-way through a financial year, that you advise us of any periods of service not covered via MDC.

You can complete this backdating process in one of three ways, by providing:

1. a TR28 submission
2. a backdated MDC file; or
3. a part ASR, but only if you produce the information from your own systems as we’ll not be providing a prepared SCHEDPRINT form for your submission.

The submission dates for this backdated information is 6 July 2017. Should you require any support with regards to this process you can find help in the MDC frequently asked questions.
