Automatic tax rebate?

emmanicole111

Hi, so I've been furloughed since March 2020 with intermittent returns to work between lockdowns. March this year, I got a new/second job. My old employer kept me on furlough until reopening (17th May, I worked in retail) meaning I was receiving two wages. Obviously my new job was taxed at BR, 20% off my whole income with no tax free allowance as it was second income.

I left my old/furloughed job officially on 17th May and have just received my last wage from them this week. My question is, now that I'm back to only one income, will I get a tax rebate from my 2nd job as it is now my only job? I've been trying to calculate it myself using the tax calculator but it's difficult to put in exact numbers.

For reference i earned about 1250 a month in each job, and had 2nd income between march and may 2021.

Not automatically until this time next year but you can tell HMRC your new (BR tax code) job is now your only job and ask them to issue your main tax code to that employer.

If they include the 2021:22 earnings from the furloughed job your new employer will make any refund due the first time they use the new tax code.
