Filling in p46 for job this SummerHiya, this probably will sound like a silly question but last 6 April does mean last year 2011 April right? My older sister has gotten me all worried now as she thinks it means last month.

A – This is my first job since last 6 April and
I have not been receiving taxable Jobseeker's
Allowance, Employment and Support Allowance
or taxable Incapacity Benefit or a state or
occupational pension.
OR
B – This is now my only job, but since last 6 April
I have had another job, or have received
taxable Jobseeker's Allowance,
Employment and Support Allowance or
taxable Incapacity Benefit. I do not -
Re: Filling in p46 for job this SummerYour sister's correct - it means 6 April 2012, i.e., the start of the current tax year.(Original post by Khodu)

Re: Filling in p46 for job this SummerFilled it now, thank you. Do you know what's best to do with money saved up from previous jobs? I have an ISA but I'm not sure what's the point of having it.(Original post by Illusionary)
Sorry for the bad news
Are you happy with how to fill in the form otherwise?

ISAs are a good bet if you're earning enough to be paying tax, as any interest on them is tax-free.

Re: Filling in p46 for job this SummerI just read the brief for the job this summer and it meant 6th April 2011(Original post by Illusionary)
Save it if you don't need to spend it now.

But you're right, saving it is a must, maybe some new clothes will do be good though lol. I'm not sure an ISA is necessary now then.How do I get paid? You will be paid weekly. Please give personal details form and relevant tax forms to [Name]. If you have been in employment since 6th April 2011, please bring in your P45 from your previous employer. If not, fill out the attached P46.Last edited by Khodu; 18-05-2012 at 16:27. -

For the P46? It's concerned with the position for this tax year only. The guidance may be out of date?

have worked just as well?
