Do you get taxed on a part time job?i

I do about 16 hours a week will I be taxed on this ?

How much someone is taxed is dependent on their earnings so no way of knowing without saying what your wage wil be.

Well it's a temp contract but I was told your only taxed if you earn over 9000 a year.

It's £9,440 to be precise but just because it's a temp, part time contract doesn't necessarily mean it's less than this and you also need to include any other taxable earnings etc for the year.

I know of someone who works only 8 hours a week and they get paid £40,000 for those 8 hours I hope they are getting taxed!

There is a tax allowance as others have stated but don't forget National Insurance kicks in at a much lower level. (about £7700 £149 per week or on an 18 hour contract £8.27 per hour)

I'm only on 6.49 an hour

theoretica

£6.49 x 16 = £103.84 a week - this is below the NI level, and if it is your only income no tax will be due.

It's like getting blood out of a stone, if you want answers then give all the facts at the start
