Tax question-2nd job

[philh45]

Shortly after my Royal Mail registration I was offered a part time evening job. I've always applied for earlies at RM so I decided to combine the two jobs. I had no P45 for the current tax year so I filled in a P46, started the other job and shortly after received a coding notice of 950L. When I got the RM new employee pack in the post, on the declaration form I ticked the 'I have another job' box and sent it back to Sheffield along with a cover letter stating that I had a second job. I also informed my other employer that I was intending to temp with RM during December.

The revenue have now sent me two coding notices, for my other job they have changed my tax code to 450L and for Royal Mail they have put me on 500T. So my question is, am I right in thinknig that when Royal Mail ends and they send me a 45, that I should hand it to my other employer in order to get back on the appropriate tax code?

You should be able to contact HMRC and get this sorted by telephone (they may want the P45 too but think they get a copy from the employer). They should be able to take your information and let the employer you are staying with have the correct tax code.
