  • Tax on 2 Jobs - under threshold

    So I currently work a 0 hr contract (earning about £500-600 per month at most as I'm earning the minimum wage for 18 year olds.) I've just started a second job (also 0 hr contract and temporary) elsewhere and have seen that I'm being taxed 20%. I've heard that a second job is taxed no matter the earnings, while I've also heard that I will only be taxed if it's over the income threshold (which I'm not as I will be earning £60 a week maximum on this second job as they are very short shifts). Just wondering what's correct here - am I to be taxed on the second job no matter what or will I get this money back in April?
