Hello all

I am looking for a bit of advice - this is my first payroll client and I am doubting myself a little :-S

This is a new company and the MD has taken a big paydrop from her last job.  The payslip is showing that she is due a PAYE refund but the company are querying this.  I am telling myself that this is because of the drop in pay but now I am doubting myself.  Please help

Hi Terri

Congratulations on your first payroll client. This is normal. unlike NI contributions tax is calculated cumulatively and any periods where pay has dropped or after periods of non payment i.e between jobs can give rise to a refund. In some cases an employee may receive a refund for a few weeks until the tax software corrects itself.
If you are still in doubt, insert your figures into the HMRC calculator/tool on their website. 

All the best.

Regards
Angie
