Uniform tax rebate?

Post by Krafty »

Can we claim this back or is this already built into our pay already?

Depends on your Tax Code but the vast majority of posties have it included in it, especially new ones I believe.

It is an allowance for the laundry of our uniforms, tele HMRC on 0300 200 3300, or write to PAYE & SA, HMRC, BX9 1AS.
It was historically an agreed amount between the Unions and the Revenue.
