I'm pretty sure you should have done

if you were working at tax year end then you should receive a P60... in any case the figures for the year should be last payslip for March
if you had left the employment before tax year end then you should get a P45 but wouldn't normally get a P60

I agree with that ........... provided you were with an employer at 5th April? And they have until end May to provide it. HMRC says :-

Your P60 is the summary of your pay and the tax that's been deducted from it in the tax year. Your employer should give you a P60 to keep as a record at the end of every tax year (which runs from 6 April to 5 April the next year). If your employer doesn't give you a P60 at the end of the tax year, ask for it - you're entitled to it by law if you are still working for the employer at 5 April.


You might need it to:

• complete a Self Assessment tax return, if this applies to you
• claim back any Income Tax or National Insurance contributions you've overpaid
• apply for tax credits

You may also need it as proof of your income if you apply for a loan or a mortgage - so it's important to keep all your P60s safe.

I'm pretty sure that you won't get a P60 if you earn below the tax/NI threshold. From what I remember of working in payroll bureaux payroll packages don't print out P60's for any employees who haven't exceeded the Tax/NIC threshold during the year.

Presumably JCP will accept a month 12/week 52 payslip or a letter from employer instead.



By 31 May 2010 you must give a paper form P60 to each employee who was working for you at 5 April 2010 and for whom you have completed a form P11(2009–10) or equivalent record.

You must record this information on a separate form P11 or equivalent payroll record (either electronic or paper) for each employee if any of the following apply:

• You pay an employee an amount that's equal to or above the Lower Earnings Limit (LEL). For the tax year 2010-11 the LEL is £97 in any week or at least £421 in any month.
• HMRC has issued you with a tax code for your employee.
• You're required to operate a tax code taken from your employee's form P45.
• You're required to operate tax code BR (Basic Rate tax) for an employee. This may be because the form P46 wasn't completed in time for the employee's first pay day, or because box C on their P46 was ticked.
