Starting new job, can't find P45

    I am starting a new job tomorrow morning. I just got the call this evening and I was told to bring my PPS number and my P45. The problem is I spent the last year or so in Canada so my P45 if I were to find it would be from June 2007. Can I even use it if I find it or is it out of date?

    If I can't find it how do i go about getting a new one and will I be emergency taxed until I get it? I can't really afford that right now with rent coming up in a few weeks.

    Thanks for any help you can offer.

    If you haven't worked this year, you don't need a P45.

    This is my advice for you:

    1. Find out your new employers company number. The accounts person will know what this is.
    2. Ring revenue, explain to them you have just started a new job. Give them the company number and ask them to tell you your tax credits over the phone, and to post them out to your new employer.
    3. E-mail the tax credits to the accounts person.

    This will ensure you do not pay emergency tax.

    Note accounts people are generally retards, so expect them to be totally clueless on this matter.
