Is it necessary to include the entrepreneur in the information on the form sv-m. Is it necessary for an individual entrepreneur to submit a test report for an individual entrepreneur?

All employers are required to submit a monthly report on insured persons to the Pension Fund. But some organizations have only a single employee - a director, with whom there is no contract, or have suspended their functioning or have no staff at all. Is SZV-M filed in such situations if there are no employees in 2018? Let's look into this issue.

What is SZV-M without employees

The SZV-M report is a form of personalized accounting. It is intended to reflect data about the insured employees of an organization or individual entrepreneur. Roughly, this designation stands for: Information about the Insured Incoming for the Month - SZV-M.

The preparation of this report is carried out by the responsible person appointed by the manager.

By general rule, if there are no employees at the enterprise and an employment agreement has not been signed between the manager and the organization itself, then we are talking about the need to pass the SZV-M if there are no employees. Accountants also call it a zero report.

When and who delivers

The report in question is required to be submitted to the Pension Fund legal entities and individual entrepreneurs who have entered into an employment or civil contract with individuals. Hence we conclude: there is no need to pass SZV-M if there are no de jure employees.

It is important to observe 2 criteria:

  1. The agreement/contract has not expired.
  2. There is an obligation to pay insurance premiums (even if there is nothing to charge contributions for, and/or employees go out at their own expense).

SZV-M is submitted monthly to the territorial Pension Fund at the place of registration of the enterprise as an insurer.

Does it make sense to take SZV-M without employees in 2018?

The SZV-M report will be practically empty in the absence of employees. It makes no sense to take it and hand it over to the Pension Fund. Although not everything is so simple.

Letters from the Ministry of Labor and the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation do not yet provide clear answers to controversial questions about reporting in the SZV-M form. Therefore, we recommend that policyholders, if any problems arise, seek written responses from the Pension Fund divisions. This way you minimize the risk of being held accountable for an offense.

Procedure for paying insurance premiums

An innovation for companies and entrepreneurs this year was their obligation to regularly submit information to the Pension Fund every month about insured persons who are their employees, as well as those working under GPC contracts. For this purpose this government agency developed and approved a specialized report with the same name - form SZV-M. This document must be submitted from April 2016. SZV-M 2017 sample filling is presented below.

The main reason for creating this report was to obtain information from business entities about retirees who continued to work. The thing is that since February 2016, the indexation of pension payments has been cancelled. However, the report must include all people, regardless of age or pension eligibility.

This report is required to be submitted by all organizations, as well as individual entrepreneurs who have concluded contracts with employees in the past period. Thus, if an individual entrepreneur operates alone and is not registered as an employer, he does not need to submit this form.

The report must include data both on employees with employment contracts and on people with whom civil law contracts have been concluded - in case they involve payment of contributions to the pension fund.

The form is also required to be submitted by companies that have economic activity not maintained or even registered by any employee. The fact is that, according to the adopted law, the director is in any case an employee.

Attention! Each branch submits separate information on employees listed among its personnel. In this case, when filling out the document, the TIN of the main company is indicated, and the checkpoint of a separate division.

SZV-M if there are no employees

If individual entrepreneur If there are no hired employees and he is not registered as an employer, then he does not need to submit this report. All other categories of business entities are required to submit this form, and it must contain at least one line. Concepts zero reporting SZV-M does not exist!

Even if the company does not operate and submits blank reports, including RSV-1, the form in question must contain one line for the director himself, who is usually also the only founder. It makes no difference whether any accruals were made on it in a given period or not. If the report is not submitted within the established time frame, the company will be subject to an appropriate minimum fine.

Also she does not appear to be peasant farms, where in addition to the head, members of his family work.

The form is not submitted to military personnel, employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the FSB (with the exception of civilian employees), since pension insurance is not mandatory for them and other guarantees are provided for them by the state.

Deadlines for delivery of SZV-M


This form must be submitted to the regulatory authorities no later than the 10th day of the month following the reporting month. If this day falls on a holiday or weekend, the deadline is postponed until the next working day.

The law does not establish a minimum date for submitting the document. In fact, it can be submitted before the end of the reporting period, but you need to be completely sure that no employee will be hired during the remaining time. Otherwise, you will need to submit an additional form, or the authorities will impose a fine for submitting incomplete data.

Attention! Since 2017, the deadlines for submitting reports in the SZV-M form have been changed, in accordance with Article 2. p. 4, paragraphs "d", federal law No. 250-FZ dated July 3, 2016.

For the first time this year, the report was submitted for April, and it had to be sent before May 10, 2016. For the remaining months of this year, the following deadlines are set:

Common mistakes when filling out a form

Type of error

It should be

Correction procedure

There is no information about the insured person. It should be! The form must reflect all employees with whom the contract was concluded even for 1 day employment contract and the GPC agreement. Information is also submitted if there have been no accruals and payments to the employee at the Pension Fund. A supplementary calculation is submitted, which indicates those employees who were not reflected in the outgoing form.
There is an extra worker on uniform. The presence of extra employees is equivalent to false information. The form cannot contain information if the employee received payments for the reporting period (for example, compensation) if they were fired in previous periods. A cancellation form is provided, listing only the excess employees.
The employee's TIN was entered incorrectly. Although the absence of the TIN itself will not be an error, nevertheless, if it is indicated, it must be correct. At the same time, the following are provided: a canceling report for an employee with an incorrect TIN and, along with it, a supplementary report in which information on him is corrected.
Forgot to include employees. Information must be provided for all employees, both those hired at the end of the month and those dismissed at the beginning. A supplementary form is provided to include the missing employees.
Invalid SNILS specified. Please check the information you are sending before sending, otherwise you may receive a fine. If the report is not accepted, it must be corrected and submitted again as an outgoing report. If only correct information is accepted, corrections are provided to employees with errors in a supplementary form.
The reporting period is incorrect. Make sure you fill it out correctly before submitting your reports. You must resubmit the form with the status outgoing, indicating the correct reporting period.

Fine for SZV-M

The report must be submitted to the Pension Fund at established by law deadlines. If they are violated, a fine may be imposed on the business entity for late submission of the SZV-M, amounting to 500 rubles for each person for whom the document should have been submitted, but was not sent. Therefore, being late for entrepreneurs and companies with a large staff of employees can entail a fairly large amount of money.

The same punishment awaits an organization if it submitted an erroneously completed or incomplete report to the Pension Fund. The amount of the penalty is calculated in the same way, based on the number of employees with incorrect or incomplete information.

In addition, a fine for failure to submit the SZV-M may also be established in cases where the policyholder sent the report in a form other than that required by law. For business entities with employees numbering more than twenty-five people, the law provides for the obligation to send reports only in electronic form.

Nuances

When a report is submitted with information about the insured persons marked “ADOP” to a previously sent document, there is no need to re-compile a complete list of company employees. You just need to provide information to correct incorrect entries or enter data on missing people.

In cases where an employee quit in the previous month, and in the next month the amounts due are paid to him, then information about this person is not included in the form in the month the funds were spent, since labor Relations have ceased to exist.

In March 2016, clarifications from the competent authority regarding the SZV-M form were issued. According to them, at the time of dismissal of a former employee, the HR inspector must be given this document, which contains only data on this person. Information containing the data of other employees must be excluded in order to prevent disclosure.

At the same time, these reports are issued for each month of the employee’s work. For example, when a person worked from April to June 2016, he will receive three reports. It is also advisable to issue a receipt from the employee that he has received all these documents.

It is also possible that a person working in a company will have a last name change, for example, marriage. If this employee does not have time to exchange SNILS for a new one with the correct information this month, then the HR specialist must submit an SZV-M with the old last name.
