National insurance added to tax

I’m completing my self assessment - when the form asks for my total tax paid, should I add my national insurance contributions to this? If not can I assume my national insurance contributions are ‘logged’ with HMRC as there are no fields on the form to write this in.

Hi
National insurance deductions paid through PAYE employment, should not be included in your self assessment tax return.  
You should only include the tax paid as shown on your P45 / P60 etc.  
If you are self employed or in a partnership, self assessment will work out how much class 2 and class 4 national insurance is payable on your taxable profits.
Thankyou.

Hi, If I only include the tax paid in P60, does it mean I have to pay extra tax because of the national insurance? For example I paid £200 every month for the NI and the tax return ignore my £2400 NI caused the higher tax return I have to pay. Example: annual income £100,000 and I paid £27,428.40 PAYE and £5,518.60 NI in last year. Now when I fill in the tax return without NI, I need to pay £5,518.60 extra. Seems it doesn't look correct.

Hi smallun,
You won't be paying extra national insurance. you may have additional tax to pay if your total income is over £100,000 as your personal allowances reduce -
see guifdance at Income Tax rates and Personal Allowances
Thank you.

 

Hi @HMRC Admin 20, your advise contradicts the calculations on HMRC website - https://www.gov.uk/estimate-income-tax Please see below summary what i extracted from the website: Income Tax: £36,659.60 National Insurance : £5,980.16 Total tax to pay: £42,639.76 How we calculate your yearly results: Your pay: £123,078 (you told us this) Your tax-free allowance is: £12,570 Your taxable pay is: £110,508 The above shows that tax is £42,639.76. This aligns with the actual payroll deduction. On the other hand, submitting only £36,659.60 says that undepiad tax of £5,980.16 is due. Surely, the right amount to provide in the self assessment s £42,639.76. These are deductions at source - Or is it that all the payroll systems are configured incorrectly to unde-deduct taxes?

Hello @HMRC Admin 20 Please give an answer to the question from @Ju Adewumi. Thanks
