If you are claiming JSA, then the Benefit office will make your refund with your next payment.
If you are not claiming JSA, then you need to download form P50 from www.hmrc.gov.uk snd send it to your tax office with your P45.

yeah i am claiming jsa at the moment is there amount of money you have to earn to claim it back then??

You pay tax at 20% on any income (including JSA) above your personal allowance, generally £6475, in the tax year. You need to know how much you have earned and how much tax you have paid

well i got £630 a month after tax and got taxed about 100 a month. If its from april i finished work in december so to be under the amount you said so i should get it then thanks for the replys.

Will you get written notice of the amount due prior to payment being made?

Well I am off to the Post Office for my first payment of the new tax year, I pray that you are right with this info.

I have a bad feeling my rebate wont have been payed, and I will spend weeks / months chasing it!

Well guess what? Yip no rebate. Dont even want to phone because I am so angry at the moment.

What gives anybody the right to hold on to MY money?

What, too much time to wait or too little?

As we have now passed the end of the tax year, then you need to send in your P60 from both the job centre and your old job to get your tax back, if it hasn't been refunded by the job centre.

We are now coming up to a busy time for HMRC, as everyone who is due a refund will be doing the same thing. You won't get your P60U for a few weeks yet either.
