help,
I need a little help with this one...
I am filling out a tax return for my self employed business I began in June last year. 
It was going very quickly at the start that I prematurely registered as self employed believing I would hit £1k sales before the end of the tax year but I just missed out.
so now I have a tax return to fill out

I need a little help filling out the "tailoring your return" section if possible.
I have a PT job- coming in at 9190.00 and no tax comes off this, only NI
My self-employment only brought in just under £900 before expenses etc

When I fill out the tax return it asks :

"In the tax year 6 April 2020 to 5 April 2021:

Were you an employee (or director or office holder) or agency worker in the year to 5 April 2021?"
Ive stated yes as I worked for a shop during this time PT and in the tax return I have entered my salary and that I have no tax deducted as per my P60

It then asks:
Was your turnover more than £1,000 in total from all self-employments? Please check help
I have selected no since I was under £1000 before deductions.

I then fill out the tax return with my employment / P60 details.
It then asks me several times if my underpaid tax "£0.00" is correct - which I state it is because I don't pay tax on my PT job.
It then begins to ask me about overpayments - which I know I have not made but input the details they require/bank details.

when I complete this - I am met with
"In the year starting 6 April 2020 and ending 5 April 2021 you have told us you:
  • were not self-employed

  • were not in a partnership

  • did not receive income from:

    • property

    • foreign earnings

  • did not

    • dispose of any chargeable assets

    • have any chargeable gains

    • claim an allowable loss

    • make any other claim or election"

Is this correct - I m assuming they are saying I'm "not self employed" because I didn't make £1k turnover - so just want to make sure Im not confirming this incorrectly.
any advice would be really helpful.
thanks

    I believe it's telling you that you're not self employed because your turnover was less than 1k.  is that what you are querying?
