Ok my P45 has an X in the week1/month1 box under my tax code and it has no figures in section 7 but does have figures in section 8.

Does this mean my work are awaiting something before paying back my tax? The works payroll dept is in Texas so makes it hard to speak to someone regarding this, I just want my tax back haha.

Thanks for the help so far xxx

Yes your employer is waiting to hear from the tax office. You may be lucky and it will be sorted in your March salary, if not then you will have to apply for any rebate if due at the year end.

Contact HMRC when you get your P60. By the time you have your copy, you employer should have sent HMRC their copy and the information should be on the record.

Assuming you have not claimed JSA between 06/04/10 and 05/04/11, and your previous employer(s) in this same period have submitted your P45 details to HMRC, they will be able to do the assessment over the phone with you.
