FY1 pay after taxes

Hi everyone,

So, like it says in the title, I'm wondering how much the monthly pay will be for a FY1 trainee doctor. Location is North West of England for what it's worth.

The contract I received says £22,636 for a 40 hour work week. What will this work out to be per month, after taxes?

I'm asking because I am trying to budget my monthly expenses as well as rent and I need to know since I do not depend on my parents for any financial support.

Thank you in advance to all who read and reply.

You... don't seem to know about banding? That's impressive naiivity for someone who has already started FY1!

Each of your jobs will be unbanded, 1B banded, or 1A banded. It is unlikely that you are unbanded all year. You need to find this out.

Once you have you can calculate your income. You can then google 'post-tax income uk' and use one of the various calculators there to find out your monthly post-tax amount (although remember to deduct pension and council tax, plus any other regular outgoings).

Sorry, should have mentioned I am an EU graduate, no previous UK experience. I've had to delay my F1 year by almost a month due to EU bureaucracy.

I have read about banding but to a newcomer it's a bit confusing.
