Advice on Self Assessment on < £1000 secondary income?

Hi, I have a question regarding my self assessment eligibility. I'm a full time employee and have recently taken on a side project that paid me £600. Do I now need to register for self assessment and fill out a tax return form Or does this come under £1000 income allowance and I don't need to do anything? Any help will me much appreciated. Kind regards

J Raja Was there any link between your employer and this side project?

 

@sportyfae, No, the side project was completely separate from the employment. Although same line of work.

Hi,

You won't need to complete the return if the gross income is less than £1,000 and it meets the criteria shown here.

Trading allowance

I have a question if I received 18000 a year, how do my rates work? after 1000 pounds received how does it work?
