    Is it possible to get a format of your P45 with your previous salary information removed? I seem to recall in the older format (when it was 3 or 4 sheets thick) that you could send it off for one where your previous earnings etc were removed?

    yeah, you can apply for a new one to be sent out direct.
    Your employer will know well that you lied about how much you were earning though!

    Good point - isn't it an 'invasion of privacy' really by default ie the normal default P45 contains these details for your new employer, and then you are required to make an alternative arrangement to prevent that invasion of privacy? Hmmm.

    You are entitled to bargain a new salary on your own terms. I don't see how an employer should have a 'right' to know your previous salary and use it as a basis for what they offer you. I would say if they offer you significantly more money than your previous post, then that is your good luck.

    It's so they can calculate your tax correctly.

    You would normally send your p45 through to HR and it will be processed by someone much lower down than the person who was dealing with your salary negotiations.

    Also it's after they already decided you were worth what they offered you, so they can't really do anything about it ;)

    yeah you can do it this way, basically you need your new employers tax number. contact your local tax office and I believe what you are looking for is to be set up on a "week 1" basis. it may however mean you have a short period of emergency tax. I have done this myself coz i didn't want the new job to know what i was previously earning (coz i got a 20% pay rise to move)
