    That is unusual but not totally unheard of.

    I think you are getting a little confused though.  You would only ever be taxed on the State Pension for a single tax year at a time i.e. your tax code would (should) include a deduction for the State Pension you are entitled to for that tax year.  It's what you are entitled to that counts, not what you will actually be paid in a particular tax year.

    Separately to that your tax code may also include a deduction for tax underpaid.  This won't be referred to as State Pension, even if that is the root cause of the underpayment.

    If HMRC calculate the tax owed for 2023-24 later this summer then they would normally try to include it (the tax underpaid) in your tax code for 2025-26.

    If this isn't possible, for example you were no longer working and no PAYE income then they would send you a Simple Assessment and you would need to pay it by 31 January 2025.

    Are you sure your tax code for your employment hasn’t already been adjusted for the year 23/24?

    In another thread the op said it started in December 2022 so it would be unusual for it not to be included in her tax code, at least from 2023-24 onwards.

    Don't forget state pension is never paid monthly; it can be weekly, fortnightly or every 4 weeks.

    Have you checked your personal tax account? https://www.gov.uk/personal-tax-account
    Googling on your question might have been both quicker and easier, if you're only after simple facts rather than opinions!

    I think this account is shared by a retired husband and his wife who is still working.
