need help and advice regarding jobseekers benefit and p60's relation

visitorx

hi,

i want to apply for tax-credits, there is bit of confusion which i m concerned about so thought better to clear myself first hopefully someone will be able to guide and help..

i was on jobseekers benefit before i started my job with currect employer, as far as i recall i gave my employer p45u which i received from jobseekers.. then when i received my p60 it has no mention of income i received from jobseekers benefit. is it normal ? in the section on p60 where it says income from previous employement is zero and shows only income i earned from my present employer.. is this how it should be ? or should it give figure earned from jobseekers claim as well??

the tax credit form says if you received jobseekers benefit and gave your employer p45 you shouldnot include that figure on the form so if i do that it leaves out income i received when i was on jobseeker benefit i received when i was on jobseekers..

what should i do.. ? any advice is highly appreciated..

many thanks for your time

Sorry can't offer any real help but do try local inland revenue enquiry office. Look up in phone book and call before popping in.

Also do JSA issue P60s as well can't remember. Worth ringing and asking....i know staff haven't received p60s yet so maybe same for customers!
