Two jobs and tax amount

Hi there,

I have been offered a 30 hour contract job paying £11k yearly

My current job is a part time weekend job (12 hours) £5k a year



So if I combine both the amount is £16k before tax after tax it is £14k for a single job will the same apply if you have 2 jobs?

What tax codes will I be put on? Will i still get tax free £11,000 amount? What tax code will 2nd job be taxed at?



I need both jobs to help me pay the bills
You can split your tax codes so you could give 5k to your weekend job then give the other 6k to your other job. That leaves 5k over the tax limit which will be taxed at 20% i think

After you have started the 2nd job, phone hmrc and they will sort it and split your tax allowance (which is 11k i believe) between the 2 jobs.
