whiterose11

put this in the tax section but didnt get a response, wondering if anybody could help here. thanks

i recently got a job as a cleaner for 10 hours a weeks for a month b4 uni! i gave them my ni number and filled in all my detals. i have now left and my wage slip came through and i thought the letter at the end of my NI number was wrong (swear its a D) so i look for my card cant find it:( .rang work and apprently they checked it and its right (i think they cant read my handwriting) i have now just checked on student finance website and they have my ni number as ending in a D (which i thought it was) and now Im worried that im gonna get done for fraud or somthing. it was only a month (£258.75). do i need to ring anybody to let them no this mistakehas happened. i didnt pay any tax as it is my only job and I dont earn enough.

hope this made sense, sorry its so long, any help would be appreciatted thanks.

Your earnings were under the amount that you start to pay NI - you start paying NI when your weekly wage is around £97 and over then yu pay NI on the lot and not just the difference

So stop worrying and enjoy spending your hard earned cash.

the last letter isnt used anymore, its only the first 2 letters and the numbers that are used. Please stop worrying! people get their NI number wrong all the time!!! You wont get done for fraud unless you are using someone else's NINO and identity to claim benefits!!
and anniehanlon, the amount in which you start paying NI for this tax year is £105pw (even better!!) and £90pw is when the employer starts paying it. (i work for National Insurance and was asked this very question on the phone today lol)
