Hi, i dont know if this is the right section.
But since its something to do with people's income etc... i thought you guys would have more knowledge and point me in the right direction.
I need to learn the insides and outsides of how PAYE works.
Examples of stuff that i have touched upon, but dont understand fully are:
Tax codes
Month 1 cumulative weeks? (dont understand this fully yet).
Tax under or over payments.. (how to work it out)
Biks and how it affects the PAYE, people with more than 1 job?
Grey areas? such as when it becomes tax evasion and when it becomes tax avoidance etc etc
Can anyone recommend me a book to help me learn all of this with theory and NUMBER WORKINGS so i can work backwards too.
Thanks

There's a great section on the Business Link website. Here's the PAYE link: http://www.businesslink.gov.uk/bdotg/action/layer?r.l1=1073858808&r.s=tl&topicId=1083106843

Or, for about £5/week, you can just outsource your PAYE stuff.... and use YOUR time for doing the stuff you're good at.
e.g. googled at random, this one at £5.75/month for up to 5 employees: http://www.thepayrollsite.co.uk/0 -

Just say that i am being trained on it... but the training is very fast and i sometimes dont get it(like some topics are harder than others and some are easy etc etc) .
I just wanted to read it in my own spare time or get different examples for clarification.0 -
So you're actually in a role that process payroll?
Don't mean to be rude, but if you're in such a role shouldn't you have some sort of knowledge of this anyway?
The questions you seem to be asking are sort of basic for anyone in payroll processing role.2014 Target;
