is all tax now handled by one department?

Because of a change in my/OH circumstances I need to sort some things out.

OH income for 2009/2010 was below what his tax code is therefore he is, I think, entitled to the tax back on the interest from his savings, he has a couple of private pensions that were taxed as tax code BR that he has paid tax on so should get that back as well.

And he was mistakenly paid tax credits in 2009 which he has to pay back.

His pensions are handled by the East Kilbride tax office but his work earnings were handled by Leeds tax office

So do I just write one letter to the tax office explaining all this and asking for the appropriate forms or whatever or do I write about each thing separately?

And which tax office?

We live in Scotland.

    With the new PAYE system in place you can send correspondence to either office though his official tax office is the one which deals with his primary source of income which is probably one of his pensions.

    Tax credits are dealt with separately by the tax credit office.
