Overpayment query

0T because you're no longer employed by them. Probably no cumulatives because it's just an illustration (of some kind. I don't understand why they've done that, the important document was the blue one).

£87.13 is their calculation for one day. It looks like they multiply your monthly salary figure by the %days you worked in the month. You worked 21 out of a possible 22 working days in November. 21/22*1916.67 = £1829.54.

The revised gross taxable and tax paid to date look correct.

They want you to pay back £1572.35, the net overpayment. Have you paid it, or any of it back yet?

Payroll probably won't send the corrected figures to HMRC until they've got (or at least pretty certain they're going to get) the overpayment back from you. Because, until it is repaid, you've paid the right deductions for the gross/net pay you've received from that employment. The double free-pay issue should then be resolved too.

Thank you! After googling it I came to that same conclusion with November pay due although interestingly there are other calculations that can be used which give a higher figure (annual salary divided by 260 calculation etc)

I haven't paid it back yet as I was trying to get in writing my correct pay/tax figures which they have recently provided via email.

You make a good point regarding payroll updating HMRC once they have the repayment. HMRC have said they are sending me a discrepancy form/letter for me to forward on to previous employer. I'm just hoping they action it much better than they have the repayment figure.

First do you agree that you were overpaid by £1863.53 Taxable gross  (£2003.80 less £140.27 pension)
If so then as far as I can see the adjustment is correct and the figures of Taxable gross £14116.83 and tax paid to date of £1146.00 are the correct figures as at month 8.
Have you as yet paid anything back if so what amount.
You do need to keep chasing your old employer to send these corrected figures to HMRC.  I would assume that if you still owe them they would get a move on as to be fair until HMRC have the corrected figures you have no evidence that you actually owe them this money.

Looking at it I am not sure how they've calculated my adjusted pay due for November. I was monthly paid and my last day was 29th November so they overpaid me by 1 day but I can't quite figure out how they have got a gross overpayment of £87.13 or £81.03 after pension deducted?

You need to query this with the old employer and request details of how this figure was arrived at if you do not think it correct.  Assuming you worked Mon to Fri that would give 22 working days for November and 1/22 of £1916.67 is £87.12 and a little bit so possibly they rounded up to £87.13

I think you need to remove the copy of your statement from your employer at 10.41 on 13/6 second page. it has something on there that can identify you. Or be used to.
