OR contacting employer

Gray-Fox

Is the OR allowed to contact your employer? The reason I ask is because I don't want my employer knowing I am bankrupt.

I cannot see any reason for the OR to do so. Are you in the financial sector?

Hi,

Indirectly an employer MAY become aware via an NT tax code - but there are lots of other reasons for an NT tax code.

DD, what are the other reasons for a NT tax code? Was asked this the other day and I couldn't remember (old age!! :eek:) Thank you xx

OK thanks all. We cleared up earlier yesteray that I won't be in receipt of a NT tax code because I was unemployed when I went BR.

The OR does not routinely contact the employer, but they can contact anyone they wish as long as they have a reason that is in the interest of the case. For instance if they do not believe you are being truthfull about your income, or maybe if you have an attachment of earnings, or perhaps if you had failed to contact them when requested they may contact them to check if you are still around etc etc, just a few examples but in most cases they dont contact them
