Tax refund?

Last financial year I only earned £3340 from my employment and 3 months worth of JSA (need to work out the exact value).

I was placed on an emergency tax code 944L WK1 and had to fill in a P46? as I didn't receive a P45 from the job centre.

I therefore paid £70 worth of tax and £40 worth of National Insurance. Will I get this back at some point?
Currently in a Protected Trust Deed - 17 payments until DEBT FREE - February 2027

    Tax yes, NI no, that is based on earnings per pay period rather than annual earnings like tax.
