I was working last year on a fixed contract from August - Christmas, i was recently taken back on by the same company covering maternity this time and i got talking to a girl that worked the same period as me and she said when she went to claim benefit she got a big chunk of tax back.

I had no idea this was even possible - am i too late to put in a claim? I didnt find a new job (until i got taken back) but i never claimed benefit either.

If you've overpaid it'll come to light in your review (P21 Balancing Statement)
