I have just lost my job after 3 years as the lady I work for is closing her company (its just the two of us there) She gave me 3 weeks notice.

Redundant after 4 months - any tips?
I've been called on a meeting a couple of days ago and senior management from my company told me that, as they're downsizing, either I'd have to accept another position (and swap some salary for equity, as they wouldn't be able to afford me) or they'll have to let me go. Having thought about it I'll opt for the second (I'm…

How will my redundancy affect tax on a new job
I’m about to be made redundant, when I receive my payout I will be pushed into the 40% tax bracket and I’m unsure what this will mean for my next job. I’ll be moving into a job on around £25k a year and want to know if this means I’ll be paying 40% tax on everything above my personal allowance. Any help?

Child Benefit Payment
If you earn over £50k in a tax year you do not get the child benefit payment. However if in single year you are made redundant - if that redundancy payment puts you over the £50k would you be liable to pay benefits back/not be entitled for it following year or does it not count as 'income'

PENP Tax calculation on redundancy
There has been a new tax law brought in this year called PENP (Payments in lieu of notice). I've read a few tax blogs and read the HMRC guidance and it's still not clear. Basically I'm on a 6 month notice period due to redundancy, I've agreed with my employer I can leave after 3. I won't be getting paid for the last 3…

I’m just wondering what my options would be? as I…

Enhanced redundancy pay v owed holiday pay
A bit 'Locking the stable door after the horse has bolted', as I was made redundant in 1995, but any answers may benefit someone else in a similar position. As was the norm when I started with the company in 1968, you had to work for a year before accruing any holiday pay; if you wanted any leave before the year was up, it…
