Hi there, I was self-employed for the first six months of the tax year, April 2022 - April 2023. In October 2022, my self-employment ceased, and I became employed from November onwards and hence paid my taxes under PAYE. It means I was not employed and self-employed at the same time. I wonder why my self-assessment calculations are very high when I fill out the employment section considering that I was not employed and self-employed at the same time? Appreciate your help in advance. Thanks,

Hi HR25,
It is likey that your tax free income allowance, was used up by your employment, leaving your self employment profit still to be taxed.
You would need to contact our Self Assesment helpline or contact our webchat facility to get a more personal explanation:
Self Assessment: general enquiries
Thank you.
