    Are there any special characters like dashes or other invalid characters in the field? It needs to be only be numbers.
    After you corrected the TFN by removing the spaces did you recreate the pay event file or use the same one? You need to recreate the pay event and then submit it via GovConnect

    Hi Melissa

    Often if is a space at the end that you often never notice, not always a space in between

    I have the same error coming up have checked with the employee and  A.T.O AND TFN is correct for employee. There are no special characters or spaces so I can not lodge STP please help
    Thankyou  The A.T.O said to check with you.
    Also had problem with leave and sick days accruing in the negative had hours set for employee but under employee defaults in the edit>preferences>employee and payroll clicked on employee defaults to find it was on every pay changed it to hours also cleared 0.00 to blank and it came up with the proper figures , that would be a helpful tip to have on you leave tutorial as I only found by chance.
