Mobile Workers Tax Claim

“My name’s Daniel Johnston and I’m a drainage engineer so I’m constantly on the move. Working with Swift was really easy any questions I had I just give them a bell and got straight through to them and especially on the run-up to Christmas it was a real lifesaver to try and pay for stuff and get sorted so was good to have that money come back to me, thank you.”

• Current legislation in the UK says you can go back up to four tax years when claiming a Tax rebate. This means at the current moment in time you can make a claim for the following periods:
  • Year ended 5th April 2019
  • Year ended 5th April 2020
  • Year ended 5th April 2021
  • Year ended 5th April 2022

   

  Effectively this means you can claim Tax relief from 6th April 2018.

  Over such a long period of time wage slips and p60s can be lost or misplaced. This isn’t a problem as you have lots of ways to obtain this information.

   

  • Contact your current/previous employers as they are legally obliged to keep your records going back 6 years and because of GDPR if your request that information they have to provide it to you.

   

  • You could log into your government gateway which is easy to set up if you have never done this.

   

  • Contact HMRC on 0300 200 3300 and request that they post out to you a tax history letter which usually arrives in 10 working days from when you request it from them and this tax history letter will go back 4 years.
