2Nd Job

[jesmond]

Even with a second job i am going to be under the personal allowance for paying tax so my question is do i still need to inform the tax office, thanks all

Are you on PAYE?

[jesmond]

Think i am on paye but as i said i am sure i wont reach the allowance for paying tax just i know due to covid that people have said its been a nightmare speaking to tax office so i would like to know if i should at least be telling them of this 2nd job regardless of not being over the allowance

There used to be a pr6 but a think employers now fill in a new form for HMRC. Anyway best thing to do is set up an online account at hmrc and its easy to sit this if they have wrong details.

Pr6 = p46

Are you being taxed on either of the jobs?

If not then there is no need to do anything.

Hopkirk i havent been paid yet for 2nd job but i doubt i will pay tax on it as not a great amount, probably best thing to do is either set up online account as suggested by someone else or keep an eye on what i am earning to be doubly sure its under the personal allowance

Sometimes in a second job you pay tax at basic rate until your status is established. If you pay tax that you shouldn't by the end of the tax year, it gets sorted later. They usually advise it will be between June and October of that year.

However my daughter overpaid in 19/20, so it should have been sorted by last October. No surprise with the current situation that it hasn't.
