Proof of tax paid / NI contributions

[Robert86]

Hi All,

hopefully this will be a quick question to resolve, but haven't had much luck myself: my partner is Slovakian and as such needs to prove tax paid in the UK at the end of every working year in Slovakia to stop her needing to pay tax there. Normally this has been done through a P60, but as she wasn't working on the cut off date at the end of the last tax year she hasn't received one.

 

We wrote to HMRC requesting proof of tax paid, but received just a really basic letter that just covered the time she did work; the problem being it does not look at all like a summary for the year, just for the period she was employed, and she's concerned that if she takes this to the tax office in Slovakia they'll either not accept it (it's not well formatted as a tax/income summary) or will not be happy as it doesn't cover the whole tax year.

 

Is there any way to get something more like a regular P60 that states tax paid/income for the whole year, even if she was not employed for the entire duration?

 

Thanks for any help you can give!

Hello there.

 

I'm not a tax expert, but if your partner left a job, wouldn't she have a P45 with the tax details on it?

Hi HB,

she has this, but it cuts off at the date the employment ended, so does not provide a coverage for the whole year. The dates on the paper seem to matter quite a lot for the Slovakian tax office.
