Remember, if you have any further questions or uncertainties about your taxes, it's always best to consult with an accountant or HMRC directly.
I hope this clarifies your situation! Let me know if you have any other questions.
Ah, that clarifies things! Since you're paid through PAYE, your employer handles the tax and National Insurance deductions directly from your wage. Here's how it works for your weekly wage of £25 in week 1:
1. Personal Allowance:
Even though your primary employer handles your main tax allowances, everyone in the UK has a "Personal Allowance" of £12,570 per year, which means you don't pay any Income Tax on earned income below this amount. For a weekly wage, the equivalent Personal Allowance is £242.
2. Taxable Income:
Since your weekly wage of £25 falls below the £242 Personal Allowance threshold, you won't have any income tax deducted for week 1.
3. National Insurance:
However, you will still be subject to National Insurance (NI) contributions even though you're not paying Income Tax. NI contributions are deducted from your gross pay before tax is applied.
There are different NI bands and rates, but since your weekly wage is below the Lower Earnings Limit (LEL) of £204 in April 2023 (currently £242 in April 2024), you won't pay any NI contributions for week 1.
Therefore, for week 1, you will receive your full gross pay of £25 without any deductions for Income Tax or National Insurance.
