Do Employers give Tax Refunds via PAYE?

The total gross pay to date is nearly £8500 which would have been April/May/Jun and redundancy I guess. The tax to date is 692.

I'll see if I can get her to find the P45 bit but she's at work today

From your first post you say "After 11 months she found a Sunday job (minimum wage), worked there for 4 Sunday's and found another job." This would mean that the earnings you refer to must have been from over a year ago and so should not have been used by the current employer. For this tax rebate to be correct the "nearly £8500" has to have been paid since 5/4/11.

There may be tax due back for last year but it would have to come from the tax office.

Just to clarify. Maternity started Dec 2010. Made redundant July 2011. Nov 2011 found a Sunday job.

Just found the P45 and it says Total Pay to Date 8330.67 and Total Tax to date 1292.00

As a lay person it looks like she has paid too much tax as the allowance before you start paying tax is £7,470 (to me it looks like around £1,000 too much tax paid). Were there months where she earned much more than £622? These should be the months where she paid tax. However overall this tax should be paid back on lower pay months.

She has only worked 3 months of this tax year April/May/Jun and I assume must have paid quite high tax in the month (June or July) when her redundancy package was paid

The recent change in computer system at HMRC is bringing up a lot of anomylies from the last few years. I had a letter relating to tax underpaid in 2007/8. Turns out the employer submitted duplicate P11Ds and so HMRC thought I had 2 company cars!!!
