Thank you for your reply. Before I received your reply, I had called the HMRC and spoke with a member of staff who also consulted his colleague and I was advised that I should choose Statement A because my casual self-employment which is likely to generate very low income during my PAYE job, if any, and also because of this my being self-employed is not considered as a job for the purpose of filling the starter checklist in these circumstances. I had also been told that I should select answer 'No' in question 8 and 10 for that reason. Could you please confirm which statement is correct in my case and what answer I should choose in question '10' taking into account that my self-employment has not ended. I would like to make sure I choose the correct answers. Thank you very much.

Hi ,
 
If you have, in your own ongoing 25/26 calculations, applied some of your tax free allowance to the Self Employment income you earned in April 2025, then choose option B, for the reasons already described (Box 8 - No, Box 10 - Yes).

If you have, in your own calculations, NOT applied ANY of your tax free allowance to your Self Employment income yet, then you can choose option A - your employer will then operate a tax code that will apply April's unused allowances to your income going forward.

(Box 8 - No, Box 10 - No). 

Thank you .
