How to i go about getting a tax rebate?
Tax deducted on emergency code, 603L, on a week or month 1 basis, should be approximately the right amount. However that code doesn’t take into account that maybe you haven’t been working since the start of the tax year (April 6th) and may have an unused backlog of tax allowances. Normally I would tell you to contact tax ofice, and be put on cumulative code number, so that employer could make a refund with pay, but we are now too late in the tax year for that. A lot of employers have done/are doing final payroll. So when you get form P60 after 5th April, send it to tax office, together with form P45/1a from your earlier job, and details of your employment history for the full year, 6th April to 5th April. Ask for computation and repayment, and for a check to see you are on the right code number for new tax year. I don’t think you will need to do form R40 for this. That is usually only appropriate where you are reclaiming tax from investment income. Do not send your claim to Leicester.
