A P60 form

At the end of each fiscal year, you will receive a P60 form from your employer, which shows your total amount of pay for income tax purposes and how much has been deducted in tax and National Insurance over the tax year. P60 is an important document – and therefore, make sure you keep it safely each time you receive it.

You will need your P 60 form when you want to do your tax return, claim back any tax that you have overpaid, or apply for tax credits. Besides that, the P 60 form also lets you know whether your employer is using the correct National Insurance number and deducting the right amount of National Insurance Contribution. And lastly, you may need it as a proof of your earnings when you want to apply for a mortgage or a loan.

As mentioned earlier, your employer will issue the P60 form at the end of each tax year, which falls on April 5. This is, however, provided you still work for your employer by then. If you are no longer employed before the fiscal year ends, you will only be given a P45 form at the end of your job. Often, employees do not receive their P 60 forms even after the tax year has ended. If you are one of them, do not hesitate to ask for it from your employer as you are entitled to it by law if you still work for the employer.

When receiving your P 60 form, make sure the following information is included in it:

Tax year to 5 April

Employer PAYE reference

Employees National Insurance number, if known

Employees name

Employees payroll number

Pay and tax in previous employment

Pay and tax in ‘this’ employment

‘Total for year’ pay and tax

Final tax code including the ‘Week 1’ or ‘Month 1’ indicator if applicable

National Insurance Contributions information

Employers name and address

Statutory Maternity Pay (SMP) paid – if applicable

Statutory Paternity Pay (SPP) paid if applicable

Statutory Adoption Pay (SAP) paid if applicable

Student Loan Deductions in ‘this’ employment if applicable
