Why do I have two end of year P60's for the same job?


One is for a small amount when I was paying emergency tax, the other is the bulk of my income for that year. Is this what happens if you have been in two separate tax codes for the same employment? And should I put them both on my tax return?

Times are hard for the aristocracy theses days...I had to eat my accountant last week. If I don't get some cash in soon I'm going to have to sell the Jag next.

If you are a REAL earl, then let your accountant handle it.

If the sum of the two = correct totals of salary & tax, then don't worry about it ... (plainly the total goes on the Tax Return).

This is a bit wacky - you should only have one P60 showing your total pay and tax for the year. I would query this with your employer as if you enter both lots on your tax return, you may end up paying tax twice on the same income.

The only thing I can think of is that your employer has been running two payroll entries for you. This could be why you have 2 code numbers. Are there any works numbers shown, and if so, is it the same number? It all sounds a bit iffy. See if you can clarify it with your pay office first, and then contact your tax office before you fill in your Tax Return, but don't forget to get it in by 31st Jan. Not long left now.
Are either/both of your incomes pensions rather than wages? That would take us into a different scenario.

Are you sure that poet I'm looking for ain't yourself because he looked a bit like your avatar, and he really made me laugh we were sort of tied up together for a while in Stafford if you know what I mean. I was known as Jock in those days. However if it's not you there's no harm done, hope you sort out your tax.
