Keep each tax year separate. Each has its own tax allowance and tax bands. This year of course tax rates have changed too.

Hi,

try this wee gadget, lets you check previous years as well.

Might I ask, what has NI got to do with it? I have got my head round the whole tax thing, and should be in for some nice refunds soon (do they pay interest from previous years?) But from my understanding, NI doesn't have any effect on Tax, and vice versa. Have I missed something completely?? How do they work NI out?

Cheers,



PS. sorry to hijack!

check the direct.gov website which tells you how much % you pay of your salary as NI - depends which category/band you are in
