    The figures on your P60 suggest that it covers only 10 months.

    I don't know exactly what you're looking at that suggests that but someone working only school hours would not be paid during school holidays. No idea if this makes a difference.
  • Thank you for all your responses. I will try and get you the information you need but it's messy. Maybe I should just leave it as it is. My DH and separated in November and for the first time in my life I am claiming benefits (and I still feel a bit ashamed if I'm honest to have to). However I made it to 48 before I had to. The whole benefit thing completely overwhelms me and I just accept whatever they say. I just give them all the information they need and go with it. I am grateful if not embarrassed to need help but I have to swallow my pride. Benefits were calculated on my previous years income which was 11,200 or there abouts. My benefits were based on this 11,2 income and not 7,6. I changed job in June 2014. My tax code was 1000L NONC up to April and then it changed to 1060 CUMU. I do work school hours but also through half terms also in which I pay for childcare.


    Thank you for trying to help but they are probably right with there calculations. I just wondered how there work it out.
    Neurodiverse and struggling with not being 'normal'.

    As your tax code was 1000L non-cumulative at the end of the tax year this would suggest that the figures on your P60 are only for your job from June 2014 onwards. Earnings and any tax paid before that are almost certainly missing. To confirm this look at the P60 if earnings for your old job are on it they will show as earnings in previous employment. My guess would be that in this previous employment you paid £16.60 tax and this has now been rebated to you.

    Earnings at the lower earning limit: £4810
    Earnings above the ELE, up to and inc the primary threshold: £1820

    Both of these figures are exactly 10 times the monthly amounts, and the total with the Earnings above the upper PT, up to and inc the upper actual point comes to about what is suggested by the payslips so little or no payments falling under the lower earnings level.

    Yes we did. However what's even more important is now being told that there is other income to consider too which will make all the difference.
