Part time second job tax

Hi Keman,
Hi, the standard personal allowance this tax year is 12570, this is shown on your payslip under the tax code 1257L, what this means is that every tax month from April 2024 to March 2025 you can earn up to £1047.50 before any tax will be deducted. And any unused amount is carried forward to the follwing month, so if you earned say 547.50 in April 2024 then you will have 500 spare tax free earning that will be rolled over to May 2024 pay, so that month you will then be able to earn £1547.50 before any tax will be deducted. This  carries on like this for the full tax year.
If you have 2 employments, usually the main employer has the tax code 1257L and your second operates a BR code,  20% tax, on all earnings there. You can, if you know what you income will be at both sources, ask HMRC to split your allowances between both sources ,or after the tax year has ended we will auto review your record and if you have any unused personal allowance we will review if any tax repayment is due.
Thank you.

Hi, I understand that I will be taxed 20% for working a second job, but if I am working 2 part time jobs and even when the salaries are combined still don’t go above £12,570, then will I receive all of the money I am taxed on the second job back in a tax rebate? Thanks in advance.

Hi binczekoladen,
To review your tax codes for both jobs please contact HMRC here:
Income Tax: general enquiries
You can then request your tax code be split between your two jobs/employer. 
Thank you. 
 

Dear HMRC, I have a full time job where I paid IHS fee for 3 years. Now I am intending to take another full time second job with a new CoS but do I have to pay IHS again for 3 years? And if so will I get refund for the 3 years that i paid for my first job? Thank you for your help.

 

Hi, The Personal allowance for 24/25 is 12570 before tax is deducted ,after this is used is the next £1-£37700 of your earnings  are liable at basic rate tax (20%) , so in theory you can earn upto £50270 before you would be liable at Higher rate (40%) . Is you earn 43900 at your main employment this would mean you can then earn £6370 elsewhere that would only be liable to tax at 20% and anything over that would then be liable at 40%  . Thank you .

Hi annamakri,
The standard tax code for 24/25 is 1257L for the year, which allows you to earn £1047.50 / month before tax will be deducted, after that the next tax band will be 20%,
The code 688L you have quoted sounds like your tax code has been split between 2 sources of employment.
You will need to contact HMRC to find out the reason for this tax code-  HMRC's digital assistant should be able to assist in tax code questions

Hi Saulmcg,
The standard Personal Allowance is £12,570, which is the amount of income you do not have to pay tax on. If you have not earned over this amount within the current financial year, across all of your employments, any tax paid will be refunded to you. 
It is most likely that your first job has all of these tax-free allowances allocated to it, if you would like us to spread your allowances across both of your employments, or would like additional advice, contact us by webchat or phone via https://Income Tax: general enquiries
Thank you.

Hi I’m wondering if you could help. Sorry to add to the post But I have a full time job that pays £30,156 and a second job that will be paying £17000. I’m wondering how the tax will work on this and how much I would be paying each month Thanks

Thank you.

So I get very confused with all this but basically I work full time now im main job I get 1,770 a month. Im looking at getting a part time job min wage 5 hours a week. Will my salary end up changing on my main job or will my main job not be affected?

Hi emmahugman,
No it will not effect your main employment.
Thank you.

Hello, I have a main job and a second 0 hour casual job. Together, these jobs will potentially take me into the 40% boundary depending on the hours I work. Currently I pay £390 per month into a teacher pension scheme. Please may you explain how this pension payment impacts upon the amount of tax I should pay between both jobs. I have been informed that pension payments are taken out before tax. I am so confused. Many thanks, Lee

Hi, I apologise if this is not the right place to ask but I'm confused regarding tax. I have been working in a flexible part time job (let's call it Job A) as a student which paid me 11.83 per hour and was roughly between 10 to 15 hours a week. Now that I've completed studies I have just started a second part time job (Job B) which is a fixed 22 hour per week contract, paying 11.75 per hour. My confusion here is since Job A is very subjective I don't have an estimate of how much I can earn from it. But I believe combining both I can earn somewhere between 1200 to 1500 per month, (if i get the hours) which is more than monthly cut off for personal allowance, I believe. I guess what I'm trying to ask is how would all this affect my tax code going forward. Would I be charged 20% of tax at only job B when both job A and B combined is more than allowance? And if so, is there any option to request to get taxed for Job A rather than Job B; As Job B is currently the source of stable income for me. Thank you for your help.

Hi, I am about to start a full time job 40 hours a week for 36 000 annually. I also would like to do a part time job 4 h a week that would only be 254 pound a month 16 pound/h . For my second part tme job I need to make myself selfemployed. I would like to ask can I be selfemplyed and employed at the same time? If yes would this effect my tax or would I be taxed from both or is it different when you are self emplyed ? thank you

Hello i currently work 17 hours a week with my first job and tax is already calculated on this job a few months ago I started bank locum shifts in which I do two a month, I need to do a self assessment tax return, my query is would this be for April next year or this year? also would the basic rate of tax on my second job be taxed per shift or overall money earned from when i started the bank work to when i do a self assessment tax return? thankyou

Hi! (Just like many other people I can’t find where to start my own post or question so I apologise if this isn't the appropriate place to ask my question). I’m thinking about leaving my full time job and starting 2 part time jobs. What would the tax be like on this? Would it be similar to a full time job + part time job, or would the tax be like from just a full time job?

Hi,
Your tax free allowance will stay the same regardless of whether you have one and/or multiple jobs. Please see the link below

Hi,Yes, you can be employed and self-employed at the same time - while the tax you owe on your employed income is sent to us by your employer, you need to register for Self Employment, as a sole trader, to pay the tax and National Insurance you owe on your self-employed income. You can register and find more advice in the link below:
