P45 Issue

Hello, I’ve previously worked three jobs and recently handed in my notice for two of them leaving the other as my sole employment I’ve been sent both my p45s however do not have any new employment to hand them into and I’m getting taxed ridiculous amounts I cant seem to find anywhere with info on what I should do or how I can submit my p45 myself Please help

Hello, a company I worked for filed for insolvency at the end of September, day before our payday. We didn't get paid that day and I still didn't receive the wages they owe me. However, a week ago, when they sent us the P45, it shows the September wages included. I'm not sure if it's a common practice or a tax fraud and, unfortunately, I am unable to get an advice from our local CAB. Could someone help me, please?

Hi 

Kimc ,   In this scenario it will be best to contact hmrc and we can get your tax code corrected at your sole employment and review any tax you may have overpaid. Please have your P45s with you when you call just in case information is required from them see :  Income Tax: general enquiries    .  Thank you .

Hi VlastaB,
Unfortunately, it is not possible to check individual tax records through this forum, if you have a question which relates to your personal tax situation or tax code please contact our Income Tax team:

​​​​​​​Thank you.

I have a question; As an employer i know we have to provide employees who have left with a p45. My question is if we give leavers access to their P45 on our system for maybe 60 days(can be longer) would we still need to send out their P45's via email/post?

Hi Tammy,
You need to ensure you give leavers a P45 or they have accessed their P45.
Thank you.

Please can you advise me on receiving a replacement P45? I was made redundant in August 2024 and was told my employer was sending me my P45 by post. It did not arrive and when I contacted them I was informed it was posted and they could not send a replacement as my details have been sent to HMRC. Can I request a replacement from HMRC please? I will need it to complete my 2024/2025 tax return for 12 months time and will likely need it for my new employer.

Hi Martin,
The P45 can unfortunately not be re-issued by HMRC as this form is issued direct by employers.
If you required this information for next years tax return the information will be available on you personal tax account in due course, regarding a future employment you should sign a P46 with them and tick option B as this will then inform HMRC that you have commenced a new employment and we can then review your tax code accordingly. 
Thank you.
