This is correct. If you had an agreement that you would provide certain work for certain wages during certain hours, then you had a contract of employment. In theory, if you did earn over the tax threshold by the end of the year you could be underpaying tax if these earnings aren't taken into account.

So for your own benmefit, I would seek advice as to what to do from HMRC - just ring the general enquiries number on the website and they'll direct you to the corect office - 0845 300 0627.

That will have the added benefit of innocently alerting them to this employer's business and they will do the rest.

I did not earn enough to pay tax, under £400. I did however receive an email of a jOb offer stating hours to be worked and rate of pay.

Thanks for the telephone number! I looked everywhere on the hmrc website!

Yes but those earnings should really be taken into account when assessing your tax for the rest of the year, or at the end of the year. That's what the P45 is normally for.

If you ring HMRC and tell them exactly what's happened just on the basis that you want to make sure you're keeping your own tax straight, they'll do the rest and she'll get found out - you've done nothing wrong.
