If you are employed and your employer has registered you as PAYE, what happens if the employer then fails to pay your PAYE (but continues to pay you your net salary)?
Friend of mine is in this situation and paranoid that HMRC will come after her for the tax. At the same time, she does not want to leave her job without another to go to, as she would not be able to claim JSA for 3 months.
I said I am fairly sure only the employer can be liable for the tax in these circs but would love a second opinion as I'm not a tax lawyer!
