- - P60 help (http://forums.sv650.org/showthread.php?t=88093)

I was wondering if someone could help... I am due over £500 in income tax from last year, but my employer is refusing to give me a p60, different excuses every time and are now using delaying tactics etc, what do I do? is this legal? I know I need a copy of this to claim my money back from the tax man, and my student debt could really do with it asap.

Not my side of HMRC tbh, but I think legally they are required to provide you with one. Or at least all the details on a P45 if you leave. That site also has a search facility - its a bit crap at times but also you may actually find stuff to quote at your employer.

Erm by delaying tactics what are we talking about? Because the tax year has only just started so your P60 for the last financial year probably wont get produced til the end of this month. Not got mine as yet. Just a thought that maybe you need to wait a couple more weeks til May before you should see it if they do the run monthly.

Your employer must provide you with a P60 by law, however they dont have to give it to you until May 31st.

Wot he said. You do not need a P.60 to claim back overpaid tax, the revenue will have a record from the P.11 your employer is required by law to provide by 6th June (I think, it's been a while). Keep all your payslips in case your employer has not paid over the tax to the tax man.

Yep, that makes it easier for them to bill you and collect it. And then to go after the employer for not paying it. ;) :p :)

I understood deducting it from your pay put you in the clear and employer was done for tax fraud. Can't be bothered to find out chapter and verse....

Oh it puts you in the clear from a "not paying it and getting fined" point of view. This is one of the things that stinks about PAYE tbh. You trust your employer to pay it over, but if they dont, its still your personal liability which is owed to the revenue and they will collect it from you.

Anything they eventually get from the employer will get refunded so youre not double accounting for it, but until then, you owe it so you have to pay it.
