Hi - would appreciate your thoughts on my circumstance. I work for a university and earn £121K p.a. I did a single piece of work for 2nd employer and was paid £250 - the enrolled me as an employee to pay me. This led to a change in my tax code meaning that I am now due to pay an additional £8K income tax annually. It does not make sense to me that a £250 payment to me increases my tax by £8K Can I claim this back? What is the mechanism please? bw Paul
