Page 1 of Thieves at the tax office owe me money. Whats the best form to use?

Had a look at the inland revenue website, but not quite sure of the right form to use.

Is it a R40, a P50 or something totally different? I am on PAYE, and calculated that I am due money due to my last employer not sending my P45 to the correct address and me getting raped on BR for the first 2-3 months.

call them up on the 0845 number - they`re actually quite helpful :)

Companies that have p**sed me off so much that I will never use them again and I hope you dont either....
Jacks Fish & Chips of Cambridge ridiculously overpriced and overpackaged chips. £1.20 for a stupidly small portion of chips - they need to go up north for a good lesson in fish and chips
Alloy Bodies of Manchester - The Grand Daddy & Benchmark for shockingly poor customer service.
Capital Bank Leasing who are part of [B]BOS & are f**ing useless & struggle to action the smallest request but are fantastically efficient at taking money out of my account
[B]Abbey National Absolutely diabolical service - how hard is it to change £60 of coins into notes????
....more coming soon no doubt.....

As you say it was you previous employers fault, so be polite. ;)


Is that the time? Damn you Xbox 360!!!!

I guess the situation is that you were on some kind of emergency tax code [edit, oh right BR code - didn`t read your post thoroughly - thought your were empoyed by BR!] until the tax office got your p45 and put you on a cumulative tax code? Or maybe you never got a cumulative code for last year but you got one from the start of this tax year?

Basically to issue a refund they need to know how much you earned and how much tax you`ve paid for the tax year in question - quite often they don`t have this information. Give them a call and they`ll look to see if they`ve got any employment gaps for the given year in which case they`ll want your copy of your P60/P45`s.

If they`ve got all the information then you don`t need a form - they`ll just request a refund.

If you can try and do things by phone as most HMRC regions have a backlog of mail of about 4 weeks.

Do an R45, it`ll be quicker. It may still take a couple of months though.

The reason I`m saying this is I`m guessing they won`t have your employment record up to date yet, if it`s for the year ended 5 April 2007 your employers have until May 19th to submit their P35 with your details.

I was phoning to request information on client`s in September last year and the Revenue still didn`t have the records up to date.

If it was later in the year or say for the 05/06 tax year you`d be able just to phone up and they`d look at your account and give you a refund.

Suprise, suprise, if your record is showing you as overppaying for an older year the Revenue won`t issue a refund.

Edit- It may be worth ringing them, but I doubt they will be much good to you this close to the year end.
