Accountancy question regarding pay slips and P60 when having two jobs.?

Hi there, My daughter is 23 and works in a salon for between 17/18 hours a week, Has been there for around 4 years. The lady who owns the salon has an accountant who has now asked my daughter to bring in her pay slips and P60 from her other job which she was recently made redundant from but he wanted to see these things before she lost her second job where she worked 12 hours. I am concerned as to why he requires this information. I believe this has nothing to do with him because she worked for a completely different company and received monthly payslips from them. Any helpful information will be appreciated. Many thanks

    Yes, he must be worried about the tax code to use for daughter. Both of her employers should have had same tax code with them or else, one of them was using an emergency tax code. Since your daughter is working for the saloon for 4 years. May be she took the job with the saloon first. It is advisable to talk to the accountant and find out why he needs it.

    There is nothing ominious about his request, he is merely trying to establish what tax code to put your daughter on. If you are still suspicious then you can simply claim that you have misplaced the P60 and payslips and ask to fill in a P46 form which will also ensure that she is put on the correct tax code and too much tax is NOT deducted.

    Tell the accountant to get lost - this is privileged information. A matter between your daughter and HMRC.

    No person other than the revenue can demand ANY financial information.

    He DOES NOT determine the tax code applied, it IS NOT his place and he is breaking the law if he does demand this information.

    Your daughter may wish to contact HMRC to review her tax code as she now has only one job - her right to check her tax codes with the body that is authorised to amend tax codes.

    Tax codes (once in use) can only be changed by instruction from HMRC.
