How to fill out statutory paternity pay:

1. Determine eligibility: Before filling out the statutory paternity pay form, you need to make sure you meet the eligibility criteria. Typically, you must be the biological father or adoptive parent of a child, employed continuously for at least 26 weeks by the same employer, and earn at least £120 per week.
2. Obtain the necessary forms: To apply for statutory paternity pay, you will need to obtain the correct forms from your employer or download them from the government website. The main form is usually the "Statutory Paternity Pay and Leave" form (form SC3).
3. Provide personal information: Begin by providing your personal details on the form, including your full name, address, National Insurance number, and contact information. Ensure all the information is accurate and up-to-date.
4. Indicate the relevant dates: The next step is to provide the dates of the paternity leave you plan to take. This includes the expected date of the child's birth or adoption placement, the date you wish to start your leave, and the expected duration of your leave.
5. Confirm your relationship with the child: In this section, you may be required to confirm your relationship with the child by providing details such as the child's name, date of birth or adoption placement, and your relationship as the biological father or adoptive parent.
6. Declare your earnings: Statutory paternity pay is dependent on your earnings, so you will need to declare your average weekly earnings over an eight-week period. This information is crucial in determining the amount of pay you are eligible for.
7. Provide employer details: Enter your employer's name, address, and PAYE reference number. This information ensures that your employer can correctly process your statutory paternity pay and that it is deducted from the correct payroll.
8. Submit the form and supporting documents: Once you have completed all the necessary sections, sign and date the form. Ensure you enclose any supporting documents requested, such as a medical certificate or adoption paperwork. Keep copies of the completed form and supporting documents for your records.

Who needs statutory paternity pay:

1. Expectant fathers: Statutory paternity pay is designed to provide financial support to biological fathers or adoptive parents who wish to take time off work to care for their child. If you are expecting to become a father, you may be eligible to receive statutory paternity pay.
2. Adoptive parents: Both men and women who have adopted a child can also qualify for statutory paternity pay. This allows adoptive parents to take time off work to bond with their newly adopted child and provide support during the important early stages of their child's life.
