Just done my SA online and, even though I am PAYE and claim nothing in relief (used to hence the SA form) really want to know if I have any cause for complaint to my employers?




Thanks

had you previously any reason to have any allowances that would have raised your tax code?

Yes, as I said I used to claim tax relief and then the reason to stopped. I was previously claiming tax relief on mileage, however with a new role came the HMRC allowed £0.40 per mile/subsequently £0.45 per mile.

So, thanks to those who helped here - as my employer has responsibility then I will approach with a calm but persistent attitude.

I would perhaps ask your payroll department if they received the revised coding.

I have had occasions where I have received a new coding notice but my employer said they had not received any new code.

The OP did say that HMRC said that it had been sent electronically to the employer - maybe that happens to all employers now, but I think you should be able to expect that they do have it and they should therefore apply it correctly.

Yes HMRC had told me that too. However the employer still said that they hadn't received any notification so HMRC said they would resend it.
