Getting money back (reclaiming emergency tax etc).

[Irezumi aka Reuben]

I've worked a variety of mainly part-time jobs over the last 3 years and am probably owed somewhere in the region of £800-£1000 due to having thing's such as emergency tax etc taken. I received a letter a while ago about tax reclamation but lost it.

How do I go about reclaiming all this money the government stole from me? Bearing in mind I don't have all (many!) of the wage slips and the wages vary each month so I can't write down how much I earn't each month.

Please help!

Phone your local tax/ inland Rev office and get them to look up your details.

If you're owed anything they should send it out that week. However, at the end of each tax year they generally square up with you.

The second you go into a job fill out a P46,

get off the M1 code , you should get it back via an adjustment , for short term jobs write or phone them and tell them you ceased,

the most important thing is to do it NOW , income tax is refundable if they over charge

HOWEVER
the 11% ontop (over 94£) NI is non refundable they took over £700 in NI last year wrongly and this was totally non refundable. remember NI is a highly evil regressive tax , which most people get knobbled by over since the tax office always over charges people.

Or just consider yourself a contractor and go via self assessment <10K = short tax returns = easy , and I can help you fill them out if you want.

i always get raped with this stuff
is the p46 the thing i shd have from my last employer ?
if i have mislaid it, is there another way i can be paid without paying emergency tax, as i have never managed to get it back in the past so not confidant i will be able to get it back this time

note do not write letters use the phone and call them regularly if you don't get a letter response in 3 days recall and keep on asking , I've known people (me too years ago) who've been owed £1000s and the IR intentionally hold onto it ask they have a bank account worth billions , billions X 10% interest rate = billions , it is in their interest to keep it as long as possible.
