Your tax is worked out based on an estimate of how much you will earn each year. If you are earning more or less than usual you can tell us.

You should update your estimated income if there has been a change to your total income and you think it will affect your current Income Tax band. This can happen if you:

• start earning regular overtime鈥�
• receive a pay rise鈥�
• receive a bonus
• have a zero hours鈥� contract and your hours have increased or decreased鈥�
• take partial retirement and work less

Check and update your details if they鈥檙e wrong or missing

You can use the PAYE section of your HMRC online account or HMRC app to check:

• your estimated income for the year
• if all other income you earn is included, such as income from rent, content creation or casual jobs like food delivery

If you have other details to change you can tell HMRC about:

• starting a new job
• having more than one job
• a change in your company benefits like a company car or medical insurance
• a change in your pension income

Keeping your tax code up to date helps to make sure you pay the correct amount of tax. This makes it less likely you will pay too much or too little tax.

After you update your details

Not all changes will affect your tax code. We will tell your employer or pension provider if your tax code changes. Your next payslip should show your new tax code and any adjustments if you were paying the wrong amount of tax.

When you sign up for paperless updates you will get a message if your tax code changes. You can view these updates in the:

• messages section of your HMRC online account
• communication section of your HMRC app鈥�
