Thanks for the reply. I have been filling in the return as best I can but am finding it confusing. I have no idea whether I am able to deduct my work pension contributions as I'm not sure if they are deducted after tax. Will HMRC check the return? If I have made a mistake and paid back more than I owe, will somebody check my calculations and any additional money be returned to me?

For the year 2022/23 I have earned a before tax income of around £60000. After my personal allowance is applied this comes down to an after tax amount of just under £48000. For child benefit charge purposes, do I need to send in a self assessment form? Any help would be appreciated please. Thanks.
