Has anyone got their P60 handy?

I've just been looking at mine and in the Pay field the salary is about £3000 less than I actually earn (or thought I earned!) If you have yours nearby, I'd be really glad if you could check it and see whether yours says the actual figure or a lower one. Thanks.

What's the figure on your last payslip of the tax year. They should be the same.

Do you do salary sacrifice for pension and or child care vouchers? That might explain it as it is not counted as taxable income.

ImperialBlether · 09/06/2014 21:36

No, no salary sacrifice or childcare vouchers.

I don't have my payslip here; it's at work.

In the Section called Pay - Total For Year it gives this figure, £3,000 (roughly, not exactly) less than my salary. There's no student loan or anything like that.

Have you had any deductions for anything this year (unpaid leave, sick pay etc?

ImperialBlether · 09/06/2014 21:39

No, nothing. It's been a very, very ordinary year.

Can they just get them wrong? I assume it's generated automatically by a computer somewhere, isn't it?

Remember your P60 is for the tax year April to March.If you hag a changes in your rate of pay during the year then you will have a combination

There was another thread about this recently- the taxable pay on your p60 is your salary minus your pension contributions so yes, about 3-4k. Mine is too.

ImperialBlether · 09/06/2014 21:46

But would it say total pay then?

I guess I'll see what the payslip says. Had a sudden hope I was being underpaid!!

Are you in a pension scheme? Pension contributions are not taxable and so not included in the figure on your P60, which is taxable pay.

PotteringAlong · 09/06/2014 21:47

I think it's taxable pay, mine wS the same.

SueDunome · 09/06/2014 21:48

X post. The figure out the P60 is taxable pay, not total pay.

Spinaroo · 09/06/2014 21:49

Sorry- think the other poster thought she had been overpaid too.

ImperialBlether · 09/06/2014 21:56

So my holiday's off then!

Thanks everyone.
