My daughter was working in a restaurant part time. No paper P45 was given when she left the employment. The online payroll account was closed 3 months after the employment ended, so there is no electronic copy, either. The restaurant is refusing the issue a copy of P45 saying they have no right to do so. The best they can do is a "statement of earnings". Is there a way to obtain a P45 which may be needed by future employers? Thank you.

Hi Martynas,
You may wish to contact ACAS to discuss the issue of the P45.

HMRC cannot issue one, this needs to be done by the employer.
If your daughter starts a new employment within the same tax year, she can contact HMRC to ensure that the correct tax code is issued to the employer.
Thank you.
