P60s and tax credits.

shelley_crow

Hi everyone.

I worked for an agency until october 2007 when i started a full time uni course. It's time to renew tax credits and student loan but i have no P60, are my last employers supposed to have sent me one or do i go straight to the tax office to get one? I'm a bit confused! Thanks x

Hello shelly_crow,

You wont get a P60 if you are not working at the moment. If you left the agency you should have got a P45, that's what you will need to use for TC renewal.

Can I just add for those people currently doing their renewals that your employment income is that income from all jobs you had during the 2007/2008 tax year. Those details will not necessarily be on your P60, it may be a case that you have to add up the figures from several P45's and the P60 provided by the employer you were working for at the end of the tax year.

Currently we are having to ask those claimants, visiting our enquiry centre to complete their annual declaration, to go home and get their P45's because they only brought their P60 with them.

Hello Pam17,

Just quickie to say thanks, you have raised a good point which I should have (oops). We are getting alot of customer's calling the helpline and realising they had more than 1 job and details not all being on P60 and having to callback.
