Hi everyone, I just want to say thank you first to everyone on the forum and hope you are all keeping well,

So I am wondering if anyone know what is the best approach to get a list of all the companies that I have worked for in the UK from the years 2013 to the present time even. The reason I want proof is to show the judge for parking tickets that I worked in London at the time which I did and the only to prove this is to show letters and documents from hmrc of the companies that I worked for and paid tax to support my case. I have paid tax and always created a new p60 when I started to work for a new company. 

So ultimately does the hmrc have a self check login system I can get hold of this information? Or do I have to call the customer services and ask them to send me the documents to my address as Its important I get all this information stating that I worked for these companies during these dates and hopefully the documents state the name of the company and addresses.  


Thank You Everyone.

Do you not have P60s or other documents yourself that show who you worked for? You should get a P60 every year and you are meant to keep them. What about payslips?
Not sure how this information will help with parking tickers anyway but that's for you to decide.

Thanks for your comment, no I cant find any payslips or old p60s, I have old emails from the companies sending me the job offer and confirmation of start date but want a more official document from hmrc also to support my case. 

Thank You

Your bank statements showing wages perhaps?

But you can still travel all over the UK in a car? How would showing you worked in London help you. it woudln't prove you hadn't driven/parked anywhere?

Surely you know what companies you worked for during that time, compile a list as it will add just as much weight as HMRC records as it only proves your employment history, not necessarily where you actually worked.

I currently work for the DWP, so officially my employers address is Caxton House, London, but I don't work anywhere near or in London.

Thanks, 
Its just another argument along with my bank statements and other evidence that I worked in London at the time, the carpark companies said they sent me many letters but I didnt receive any. I know what companies I worked for during that time and yes it will help my defence. HMRC records proving my employment history is another crucial bit of information as the companies I worked for were not big big companies, just small companies with 1 office in London and no where else. Thanks Tom.

I don't understand why you think that being employed by a company in one location would have any effect on the validity of a parking fine in another location.  Unless the employer you had on the day of the fine can state that you, and your car, were at their place of employment at that time, how do you think employment information will help?  HMRC records may prove your employment history, but not where you were on a specific day.

When do you need this information by? A Subject Access Request might help but a SAR normally takes weeks and this is not a normal time.

Click on the above and read the article. You'll note it lists employers names but does not mention employers address.

from your other threads I understand you are not disputing the fact that you  parked or that you over  stayed your  time.
Your dispute is that you  never received any correspondence regarding the parking charges as  you did not have a  permanent address at that time so had not updated the DVLA records.

Thank you for your comment, the companies i worked for have and are small 1 office based locations, they are small businesses so its clear to see, its just more evidence for me,
