Hi, What can i do if my employer will not provide me with a P60? I keep asking but i`m getting no where. If it is law, how can he keep refusing me my legal right. I do not want to loose my job over this. Please advise, many thanks.

Hello!

I worked as a language assistant teacher in Wales from 1st Oktober 2008 – 31st April 2009. I forgot to get my P60 before I left, and now I need it. Where could i get it now? At my last employer? (Is this the caerleon Comprehensive School I worked at, or the City Council of Newport?) And… I also worked in another school there in another council area.. do I need another P60?

TaxFix - Wednesday, May 12th, 2010

Hi Damijan,

Sorry we can’t tell you who your employer was. It should say on your wage slips or contract.

You can get a replacement P60 by writing to your employer and asking for a ‘statement of earnings’ on company headed paper. They are required by law to provide this for the last 6 years and this can be used as a replacement for a P60. If you are claiming a tax rebate you will need a P45/P60 for each employer.

TaxFix - Wednesday, May 12th, 2010

Hi Mrs Owen,

Your employer should give you a P60 before the 1st June. If they do not, and you do not want to rock the boat, you could write to them and ask for a ‘statement of earnings’ on company headed paper. A statement of earnings can be used as a replacement for a P60. I hope this helps.

i wish to claim child tax credits. to do this i need my p60 but my employer is delaying giving this to me or anyone else who works in his pub.This delay is losing me child tax credits as they only backdate a certain amount of time can i claim the money i have lost from my employer as he is responsible for the delay ?

TaxFix - Thursday, May 13th, 2010

Your employer is required to give you a P60 if you were working for them on the 5th April.

If they do not you can write to them and ask for a statement of earnings which can act as a replacement to a P60.

TaxFix - Thursday, May 13th, 2010

Hi Mr. Watts,

Your employer is required to give you your P60 before the 1st June.

If you need a P60 before then you can ask your employer for a statement of earnings on company headed paper which can act as a replacement for a P60.

I worked for 11 years in one job until October 2009 when it changed hands. I stayed in that job but with new employer, receiving my P45 from old employer. I then left and moved to my current job. I’ve received my P60 for this year from my current position, but do either of the old jobs as they were in the last tax year have to give my a P60? Confused!

Mr K - Friday, May 14th, 2010

Hi I have worked for two different employers from the 14th april 2009 to 23rd march 2010 with having two periods inbetween this on Job seekers allowance. I have recently just started new employment on the 13th april 2010. where would I be able to get my P60 from?. I need this to start claiming child tax credits

Anonymous - Friday, May 14th, 2010

my employer has failed to declare my tax earned in march 2010 until April 2010.This has meant it is in 2010-11.
If it was in 2009-10 as it was earned I would only pay 20% tax which is correct since I was well under the higher rate threshold i terms of earnings .
In 2010-11 my earnings will exceed the lower threshold and any earnings will attract the 40% rate.
so this money earnt in the last tax year is in this year and will cost me 500 pounds.
What can I do about this ?
they have said theres no P60 as they didnt do one even though they registered me as an employee on the 17th March

TaxFix - Friday, May 14th, 2010

M Murray,

You only get a P60 if you are working for an employer on the 5th April. If you finish working for an employer you get a P45.

I hope this helps.

TaxFix - Friday, May 14th, 2010

Mr K,

You only get a P60 from an employer if you were working for them on the 5th April (the end of the tax year). If you stop working for an employer before the 5th April you should have been given a P45, which will show how much you have earned and how much you have paid in tax.

Stuart - Saturday, May 15th, 2010

Hello.
I was made redundant in January after the firm I worked for was placed in liquidation.
I haven’t had a P45, a P60 from the last tax year 09/10, or the previous one 08/09.
How do I go about obtaining them?
I was an employee for 6 and a half continual years

TaxFix - Sunday, May 16th, 2010

Hi Stuart,

You only get a P60 if you are working for a company on the 5th April (the end of the tax year).

You should have been given a P45 when you finished working. If you were not any the company is now in liquidation it may be hard to get a replacement. You could contact your local tax office to see what records that have of your employmenet, pay and tax.

Mark - Monday, May 17th, 2010

I seem to remember that when I used to do the salaries and wages for a company that I worked for many years ago, the P60 should (by law) be received by the tax office and also the employee on or before the 19th May for the year just ended – Does anyone know if this still applies?

TaxFix - Tuesday, May 18th, 2010

Hi Charlee,

If you do not have a P45, you can write to your employer and ask for a ‘statement of earnings’ on company headed paper.

TaxFix - Tuesday, May 18th, 2010

Hi Mark,

The deadline for a company to have given you a P60 is the 1st June.

I am currently in dispute with my employer. I have been laid off for a long time but am still on the books. I therefore should get a p60.

TaxFix - Thursday, May 20th, 2010

C_Whitby: Yes, you should only receive a P60 if you are working for an employer on the 5th April. (the end of the tax year)

TaxFix - Thursday, May 20th, 2010

Mrs Reed: It depends if he needs it for anything. It may be advisable to ask his employer for an amended copy.

TaxFix - Thursday, May 20th, 2010

Is an electronic copy of a P60 printed out myself sufficient? Does it not need to be an offically printed version to be usable (for proof of income etc)?

TaxFix - Monday, May 24th, 2010

N Wright: Your mum can write to her employer and ask them for a ‘statement of earnings’ on company headed paper for the tax year in question. This can act as a replacement for a P60.

Kayleigh - Wednesday, May 26th, 2010

I started work on the 8th of Feb this year. i have yet to recieve a P60. should i be getting one from my current employer?

TaxFix - Wednesday, May 26th, 2010

Kayleigh: Yes, if you were working for them on the 5th April (the end of the tax year) you should get a P60. Your employer has until the 1st June to give you one. If you do not get one, ask your employer, and if they are not forthcoming, request a ‘statement of earnings’. They are required by law to provide this and it can be used to claim your tax back.

confused - Wednesday, May 26th, 2010

We get our wage slips on-line, can the P60 also be on-line or is it a legal requirement to have it as a hard copy from the employer?

TaxFix - Wednesday, May 26th, 2010

The Inland Revenue states that your employer must give you a hard copy of your P60. In their guidance to employers, they state:

“Even if you have been giving your employees electronic payslips, you must give your employees a paper form P60 at the end of the tax year. You must not, by law, give them P60 details electronically for them to print off.”

confused - Wednesday, May 26th, 2010

I have heard that for the tax year 2010/11 onwards P60s can be provided in electronic form.
Is this so, or does you reply earlier still stand?

Katie - Thursday, May 27th, 2010

I’m currently applying for student finance and sent off my mums p60 year ending 2009. They sent a letter back saying they need more evidence of earnings because the tax code is w1 which would suggest she had other income at the time. This is not the case though, her previous employer never gave her p60 or p45 and were being investigated for reasons I do not know of but HMRC sorted it and she has recieved tax credits notifications with earnings. Would this be sufficient evidence or is there anything else I could send?

TaxFix - Thursday, May 27th, 2010

Katie: I would give the student finance people a call. Sorry we can’t be any more help but they are probably the best people to ask on what they would accept as evidence.

H. F. - Saturday, May 29th, 2010

The annual earnings total on my P60 does not appear to be the same figure as on my month 12 payslip. I contribute to a work’s pension scheme and pay full NI contributions.

TaxFix - Saturday, May 29th, 2010

H. F.: How much is it out by? The P60 should show how much you earned between April 6th and April 5th the following year. Often wage slips don’t correspond to these dates, as people are paid on different days.

TaxFix - Saturday, May 29th, 2010

anonymous: I would speak to your boss or your payroll department and ask them why you have been given two P60′s, you should only be given one if you are working for one company.

what should i do if my employer has given me a photocopy of my p60 along with my details being incorrect. includin my national insurance number, amount earned for the year and it also states i havent paid tax when i have. should i take it to the local tax office?

TaxFix - Monday, May 31st, 2010

Lauren: I would first contact the payroll department of your company and notify them of the error. They have an obligation under the data protection act to have accurate data regarding you and your employment, and they are required to correct any mistakes.

TaxFix - Tuesday, June 1st, 2010

Dovlet: You need a national insurance number to claim a tax refund. You can still get one by going to your local job centre. It is worth doing, as you are likely due a large tax refund.

Dovlet - Tuesday, June 1st, 2010

If i do so and get NI number, do i need to change my P60s?

TaxFix - Wednesday, June 2nd, 2010

COIA: The other two companies should have given you P45′s when you finished working for them. If they did not, you can write to them and ask for a statement of earnings on company headed paper, this will act as a replacement for any lost P45 or P60.

My employer is refusing point blank to give my either statement of earnings or p60.

What legal steps may I take in this case?

TaxFix - Wednesday, June 2nd, 2010

John Edwin Mackenzie: The Inland Revenue requires all employers to provide a P60 to their employees no later than the 31st May. I would remind your employer of their obligation and if they still refuse, take it up with your local tax office. Alternatively your employer is required under the data protection act to provide a statement of earnings, you can take this up with them if your employer refuses.

Shane - Thursday, June 3rd, 2010

Is it OK for an employer to give out photocopies of a P60 ? This is just a photocopy of the original to be clear on that .
When queried about it the responce of ” that’s all you are getting” is a bit off to me !
I thought that the original was a legal document , indeed a lot of places will not accept a copy of it.

TaxFix - Thursday, June 3rd, 2010

Shane: Your employer should give you an original P60. Do you need the P60 to claim a tax refund? If so, maybe it would be easier to request a ‘statement of earnings’ on company headed paper. This can be used as a replacement for a P60 and your employer is required to provide this otherwise they would be breaching the data protection act.

My partner worked in a previous job and left on 1st July. He started his present job on 13th July. When he received his P60 for the end of tax year 2010 from his present employer, it did not include pay or tax from previous employment, only pay and tax from this job. I need to apply for tax credits, do i put on the form what is on the P60? Many thanks

TaxFix - Thursday, June 3rd, 2010

Anon: When your partner finished his job on 1st July he should have been given a P45. You can use this in additional to the P60 to calculate how much income was earned during the year.

Mig2 - Tuesday, June 8th, 2010

For the third time in row, my employer keeps stating the wrong amount on my P60. I work with an agency and my P60 always shows an amount less than 4000 pounds although when I check all the payments I have received through my bank account, the amount for any of the 3 financial years I have earned over 7000pounds in net figures. This has resulted into the jobcentre not being able to give me any benefits while I did not have a job as they said I have not paid enough NI contributions due to my low earnings. However, I do pay both tax and NI on my payslips. Could you please let me know what I should do?

Sanad - Tuesday, June 8th, 2010

RE: TaxFix – Monday, June 7th, 2010

Many thanks in anticipation.

TaxFix - Tuesday, June 8th, 2010

stevie - Tuesday, June 8th, 2010

I am confused about what figure to use for my tax credits from my p60. The P60 has a figure for ‘this employment pay’ and ‘tax deducted’. Do I just use the figure for ‘this employment pay’ or should I add the tax deducted onto it?

Mig2 - Wednesday, June 9th, 2010

I have done so the first two times but they keep giving me these quite complicated explanations that get me lost, especially saying that it is hard to understand as I am not an accountant. Moreover, I am now starting to think that it is done on purpose as some of my colleagues said the same about their P60 today when I introduced the subject. Can it be a fraudulent case? If so, what shall I do? For example, after working full time without for a whole year, my P60 shows that I earned 3962 pounds for the whole financial year!!!! Even if I get paid a minimum wage, I don’t think my earnings would be that low!!! Thanks

My husband did some temping work during the tax year 2009/2010 on and off until he got a permanent job in October 2010.

He has a P60 which gives the salary he earnt at his current employer and also “previous employment(s)”. Would the figure under ‘previous employments’ include all the temporary work he did during the tax year for different agencies, or just the last one he worked for?

We need to submit the information for child tax credits and are trying to avoid double counting.

Z Wright - Wednesday, June 16th, 2010

I called my employer (temp agency) in April as I had not received my P60 and my colleague had, to ask when I would get it, I was told that I should wait until the end of May as this was when it would definately have been processed by due to the legal requirements. I called back at end of May, still no P60, and asked for statement of earnings as I was told I should have had it by then. I called a week later as I hadn’t received anything and was told that they couldn’t do anything about it and speak to tax office if I’d lost it – Tax office since then has told me that the employer has not even submitted the information to them. They are now refusing to have anything to do with it, as the company I am working for has switched from their agency to another, and so claim it is the new agency’s job to deal with it. Please can you tell me what I should do next and who I can report this to? Thank you! (sorry such a long message!)

TaxFix - Thursday, June 17th, 2010

I have been working for my employer now since 1st June 09. I have an employment contract. I have recently been requesting a p60 + wageslips that I have never had and my employer is just fobbing me off. I don’t want to cause to much of a stirr as I’m a single mum and I need my job. I’ve now starting to realise that my boss has probably not paid my tax for the duration of working for him! He pays money into my bank each month less tax. After asking advise from a few people they have said that if they don’t pay my tax I will end up paying it!
This seems so unfair. Can please advise me of my rights.

On my 2009/10 P60 the gross pay figure shown is higher than my actual salary. I have queried this and have been told that the gross figure includes the pension contributions I make into the company pension scheme. Is this correct as I have alway assumed that the gross figure is just earnings.

TaxFix - Tuesday, June 22nd, 2010

mooro: I assume you want to know to work out if you should have been given a P60? If so, you can simply write to your employer and ask if you were employed on the 5th April. Either way, you can also write and request a statement of earnings, from your employer which can be used as a replacement to a P60.

TaxFix - Tuesday, June 22nd, 2010

LaLatotty: Yes your previous employer can and must provide a statement of earnings if requested within 6 years of working for them. A statement of earnings can be used as a replacement for a P60.

I’m an EU-national, who worked in UK for 4 years. I left my job in Feb 2009, my employer posted the last P60 in April 2009 but it got lost somewhere, I never received it.
I don’t actually need it, but my question is: if it fell into wrong hands, what are the possibilities that a fraud is done by someone, using my name and other information the P60 provides? Is it possible at all? Do I need to report the loss of it anywhere? I left the UK last year, had no other job there since Feb 2009.

DG - Monday, June 28th, 2010

I have worked for the same company for 10 years and am in dispute with the Student Loans company as they say I have not paid my loans back. This is stated on my P60s however the SLC will not take copies of my P60 and duplicates from my employer. My employer is saying they are only legally allowed to give 2 years worth. Under the DPA do they have to provide all when asked?

Cheers

TaxFix - Tuesday, June 29th, 2010

DG: Yes, they must provide all your data when asked for it.

Gambit - Tuesday, June 29th, 2010

Hi, I hope that someone can help me.

I have a sage 50 payroll program that i am teaching myself to use.

I have 7 employees of which one left last year, and received a P45, one started in Dec 09 and one started in Jan 2010.

My problem is that everyone is receiving a P11D, the staff apart from the new staff on receiving P14′s and P60′s apart from the one who left, but the staff i am missing for P14 and P60 are the two new staff. if they have not earned enough to show tax and Ni etc, would they still receive this information?

I have checked the inputing of the P45′s etc and all is correct, i just don’t know why they have not printed?

Please help, it is driving me bonkers.

TaxFix - Wednesday, June 30th, 2010

Gambit: A P60 does not need to be given if no tax was paid.

my husband has been in the same employment with the council for 12 years,on his p60 in pay and tax details,under pay it states an amount in previous employment, and an amount in this employment and tax has been deducted from both amounts.the amount on his final monthly pay slip of the year tally’s with the amount in this employment please could you tell us what this maybe as there is over £5000 difference

hi there – i have worked for 2 companies during a financial year and received a p60 from the company I was working for at the end of the year but not from the other but I need this to complete my tax return – should they have given me one ??

TaxFix - Thursday, July 1st, 2010

jimbo: You only get a P60 if you were working for a company on the 5th April. If you were not you should be given a P45.

superteam - Thursday, July 8th, 2010

hi there, I am a temporary worker finished my previous work before 5th April 2010, the agency say they can only give me P45 for the previous job. The question here is that which form I need to fill up to claim my tax back? P.S. I start to do temping from May 2010 again.Thanks in advance!!

Mrs KK - Wednesday, July 14th, 2010

I have worked for the same employer (small business)for 19 yrs. In all that time i have never been given a P60 nor a wage slip. I did manage to get 1 out of him a few yrs back when i was applying for a mortgage but that’s it.

Asking for them causes tension and i am concerned he may be claiming any tax rebate i may be entitled to.
What do i do?

TaxFix - Wednesday, July 14th, 2010

Danni: Ask your previous employer for a statement of earnings, this can be used as a replacement.

TaxFix - Wednesday, July 14th, 2010

Mrs KK: You could ask for a statement of earnings on company headed paper, which can be used as a replacement for a P60. You can use your wage slip to see if you are due a tax rebate, but normally if you work for the same employer for the whole year it is less likely you will be due a tax rebate.

I am going through a divorce process with my banker ex husband who is clearly trying to hide money from investments/shares etc. He was made redundant on 31 May 2009 and started new employment on 1 July, and was therefore was not in employment on 5 April. He has provided a P45 but this only shows income earned and I need the information which would be on a P60. How can I find out this information if a P60 is not available? Many thanks.

Anonymous - Thursday, July 22nd, 2010

I only work part time and earn < £5000 per annum. My husband works fulltime and earns £20000. We have children. To complete our claim for tax credits I have asked my employer over the last 6 weeks to provide a P60, I have also asked for a statement of earnings but each time I am being fobbed off. I have until the 31st of this month to return my completed tax credit form and I extremely worried I will not get a P60/statement.

Are there no other options available to me, what would be my best course of action?

Nicola B: If you have lost P60s from your previous employers, you can write to your employer and ask for a statement of earnings which can be used as a replacement.

Jay - Wednesday, August 4th, 2010

My employer has not provided me hard copy of the P60 the past 5 years. Rather they issued soft copies which can be printed. Also when I enquired they told me there is no specific requirement from HMRC to provide hard copy to the employee and since 2008-2009 only they started issuing hard copies. Is the printed soft copy equivalent to a Hard copy?

I am aware that the P60 is given to you by your employer, but this come from Inland Revenue or is it generated by the employer?

John - Saturday, April 9th, 2011

I work for a business which has a number of companies

I have been paid from the group company and my P60 shows the Group company as my Employer

I have now been made redundant and the notice has been issued under a subsidiary company. This subsidiary company was listed on my contract of employment when I joined 15 years ago and until 2005 it was named also on my P60. It then changed to the group company

Who is my employer?

Any help would be welcome

Annon - Wednesday, April 27th, 2011

I have been p/t working for my new employer since Aug 2010. (Prior to Aug 2010 I was on conbribution based JSA and received a P45 from the DSS when I started working again).

I’m the only employee that’s not received a P60.

Is this because I don’t earn enough to pay tax or NI? (I only earn £5000k p/a). Or should I receive one.

Ta.

Louise Lucas - Thursday, April 28th, 2011

I have been given my P.60 for year ending 2011. It does not show my full earnings for the year. I have been told that:
“The figure quoted for 2010-11 (the latest one) excludes the salary sacrifice 9.1%.”

Is this correct please as I now don’t know what my exact earnings were last tax year. Thank you.

Clare Somerset - Sunday, May 1st, 2011

If you are working for a company but deemed self-employed, will you still get a P60, or do you get one only if you are “on the books”?

Is the figure in the pay column the total income before tax.I have a loan with my employee to pay for a parking permit so is this deducted before the total income is completed on the P60

Angel - Friday, May 13th, 2011

I keep seeing comments on the internet from ‘people in the know’ on forums, such as ‘MoneySavingExpert’, regarding P60 statements… That the ‘self-employed do not receive a P60′

I am employed, part time; Mon-Thurs (was full-time, but went on 9 month’s maternity leave, but came back PT).

I cannot support myself part time, but wanted to spend more time with new baby, hence part time. I have therefore, taken on some paid freelance work. I’ve informed the tax office and have registered for self-assessment.

I am therefore BOTH ‘employed’ and ‘self-employed’…

My question is are these ‘knowledgeable people’ correct and I will not be receiving a P60, or are they wrong and I will?

I need to know my income for self assessment and cannot do it without a P60, as I was on maternity leave for most of the tax year, my income was fragmented due to maternity pay, so I really do need a P60!

Stacey - Friday, May 13th, 2011

John - Monday, June 6th, 2011

Hi,
the company I worked for has merged with another company. The employer’s written to us there would be no changes to any of our employment details including the length of employment etc. The only change is the company name we now work for.
I’ve noticed that I’ve not had my P60 and when inquired was told they can’t do it but can provide me with a statement of earnings. Surely P60 is something they must provide me with by law. Am I wrong? Thanks.

My partner has just moved in and has been working for the past three months and has pay slips etc. However, before that he has been living as a traveller for the past four years, neither claiming benefits or in full time work. He lived by doing casual work and seasonal work – all cash in hand. He estimates that he may have earned up to 5,000 – per annum, only just enough for food. Now we are applying jointly for tax credits and he does not have a p60. What problems may this cause and how do I explain this on the tax credits form which wants details of his earning for the past year – help!

i recently started my first job and am a bit confused by my first paycheck.
I know i should have looked at my pay check properly when i got it on 31st july but i didnt notice as this particular detail is in tiny writing.
Under the total gross pay it says national insurance number. The national insurance number on my payslip is not the same as my national insurance number. Is there a reason it is different or is it my employers mistake?

Could you tell me how long I need to keep P60′s

Tax Fix - Monday, August 22nd, 2011

@Robert Hughes

There is no hard and fast rule for how long you should keep your P60s. However, it is advisable to keep them in a safe place for as long as you can. You may need to check previous tax returns (you can normally do this for 4-6 years after the tax year) or you may need to provide historical P60s if you are looking for approval for a mortgage or loan.

Hi, my employer terminated my employment without telling me when my maternity leave ended so as I a result I am now claiming benefits. The job centre have requested a p45 from me but whenb I asked for it the company said as I haven’t worked there for over a year they are unable to provide me with one, but said I could have a statment of earnings which they failed to provide also. The job centre said if I do not receive either of these it will affect the benefits I get which is my only income. Is there a template letter I could send them or another form I am able to fill out to show how much tax I payed and if I’m entitled to a rebate. Many thanks I look forward to receiving your reply soon

@jenna green

Your employer should automatically give you a P45 when you stop working for them. If not, ask for it – you’re entitled to it by law.

Yes, your daughter should receive a pay slip detailing the money she has earned and any tax and National Insurance contributions that she has paid.

Hi

I hope you can shed some light on my situation I have been with my employers for 18 months. I have had no p60 or wage slips and I am now worried about my tax and if it’s being paid . I have had no correspondence from inland revenue or student loans during this time, anytime I ask I am told not to worry the account is dealing with it. I am really worried I’m going to be landed with a big tax and student loan bill! Please advise if possible many thanks!

Anon - Friday, September 30th, 2011

I have had some trouble with my employer and so left my job, and had to go to an employment tribunal, which I won.

Through my employment I was paid in cash in an envelope each week net of deductions. My employer confirmed my tax and NI was being paid, but that she had the wage slips on my system if I ever wanted them. I didn’t ask for them as didn’t think I needed to.

when I left I asked for my wage slips- these showed differing amounts that were all wrong! I told my employer they were wrong, and they said oh yes there had been a mistake and then produced new ones. These two were wrong and showed that I was paid £300 a week net of Tax & NI. I queried this again as I was in fact paid £350 a week net. My employer said they’d sort it. My P60 said something completely different again, which makes me think my employer was fudging their books.

The employment tribunal found as a fact that I was in fact paid £350 a week net of deductions.

I am now really worried that my employer had not been paying full tax and NI on the amount I was paid. Am I going to get in trouble for this? I think I need to report it to HMRC but am really scared I will be the one to be given a huge tax bill, even though it was my employer’s fault as she was the one, probably deliberately, not paying the right tax and NI. Can you help advise?

mrs w - Tuesday, October 25th, 2011

Hi,

I have just finished my maternity leave and I informed my employer that I was not returning to work. I have not been given a P60 for the last 3 years from my employer so I am a bit suspicious to whether or not he has been paying my tax and national insurance contributions. I don’t want to contact him as we parted on rather bitter terms as he had not paid me for the last month of my maternity leave and lied to me lots. The company has since gone into liquidation (although he has just renamed it and carried on trading). I have heard that some of his other employees have been informed that their tax or national insurance has not been paid too. How can I find out if mine has?

J Sage - Monday, November 7th, 2011

I have taken voluntary redundancy. When I signed on and tried to claim contributions based benefits I was told my employer had failed to pay my income tax and NI even though it was PAYE and deducted at source. What legal rights do I have? I have yearly p60′s to prove my pay was deducted. I am nwo facing having to pay tax and NI and not elible for contributions based benefit.

Ian Fisher - Wednesday, November 9th, 2011

Surely a P60 is a statement of the money you have received in the tax year? My P60 is incorrect because it is based on the dates the money left my employer’s computer banking system (eg 1st of month), and not the dates I received it (eg 7th of month). These dates span the end of year date. As a result, I have one less payment at the beginning of the tax year and one payment more at the end. The difference between these two amounts is about £20.
