P60 query

RedXIV

Hi, I recently went in to the SW office here to get JB but because i had two jobs in 2007, it came up i had 63 weeks worked in year. They were looking for a P60 from my second employer so i can claim but I couldn't find one when i looked through my docs. My dad says you only get one p60 a year regardless how much you work so i'm just wondering if the p60 i have for my initial job will suffice?

Thanks
Dave

A P60 is issued to an employee who is in employment ON 31st of Dec of the year in question. If you worked two jobs but both ceased before 31st December then you would not be entitled to a P60 but instead a P45.
If you finished one job and continued the other and was employed on 31st Dec then your P60 would include details of both employments pay, tax and prsi contributions.

The question really is: were you employed with both employers on 31st of December in 2007?

I was employed by one of the two jobs by that date and the one employer's details are on my p60 so i assume they are correct?

when you finished job 1 did you give your p45 to employer 2? if you did, your p60 should show gross income and also income in respect of previous employment. they are the 2 figures that i think sw would need. if not, then give them your p60 from job 2 along with the p45 from job 1.

New problem, I can't find my 2007 P60, i had the one for 2006. Is there anyway i can get a duplicate? I've been sent around in circles all day

you can chance your employer to see if they have a copy of the p60 on file. It depends who you're dealing with here, if they want to be helpful they could really get it from their records or their accountant I reckon. Else you could contact Revenue with your pps number and explain your situation. They should have a record of what was filed by your employer for you for 2007. Probably emailing Revenue is the best?

If you sent a copy of your p60 into revenue then they should have a scanned copy on file and therefore be able to send you a copy.
If not they can confirm you gross pay and tax details but not your prsi contributions.

Make sure you received your copy of your 2007 P60 from your employer.
As one of the previous posters stated, if you handed the P45 to your second employer and revenue received their copy then your gross pay from both employments and tax from both will be on the P60. The p60 will be issued from the 2nd employer and no details from the first employer will be on it appart from the pay and tax.

If social welfare are asking for a p60, then it would be a good idea to try and find the p60 you need as they prob wont accept anything else.
