Question 1

Tax doesn’t have to be taxing ….apparently?

Lisa Dagge · Accepted Answer

Often we receive queries about tax codes and the amount of tax we deduct.

When you start working through us, we ask you to complete a HMRC form which allows us to set you up on an appropriate code but we often receive updates from HMRC via electronic messages through the ether to our payroll software which changes the code and the amount of tax deducted. Sometimes you will receive a rebate!

We would highly recommend you set op your own Government Gateway account with them if you haven’t already! You will then be able to see your current tax code, details of your earnings past and present, along with useful things like your state pension prediction and record of national insurance. From here you can query your tax code if you feel you are paying too much!

As always though, give us a shout if we can help with anything!
