PAYE tax owed amount.

I logged on to the HMRC site to check my tax code for the next financial year - I changed jobs this year and had two pay days in one month as a result. My job change also meant an increase in income.

As a result my tax code changed to allow me to make good the estimated underpayment that this would cause by paying a higher rate each month (about £260 total amount) until April 5th and my tax free allowance showed as reduced - fine and understood. When I checked my tax code last night, the screen showed what is on the attached screenshot. Does this mean that it has been calculated that I have £2814 they estimate as outstanding or that it is what has been paid this year? When I rang them up back in the summer about the change to the code and additional payment being taken the advisor said that come 5th April I would not owe anything extra.

It just confirms what you have said - you personal allowance this year was reduced, from Monday it will be back to standard. Looks all right to me.

Perfect thank you; I thought so - so no £2814 outstanding? I have always felt quite clear about tax but for some reason this unsettled me!
