C.E. Scheme Tax

confuseddotcom

Just started a C.E. Scheme. I have been on Jobseeker's Allowance up to this. What do I do now? Have been told by the C.E. Scheme people that I may be on Emergency Tax. Can anyone tell me what a new Job is based on after being on Jobseeker's Allowance? Is it based on my last job I held, do I have to give my last P45 to the C.E. Scheme's Payroll? Or is it something got to do with Social Welfare due to my immediate last activity being on Jobseeker's Allowance? Do I have to get a Tax Document from the Department of Social Protection to give to C.E. Scheme's Payroll?

Revenue said the closing date for forms was last Friday but I can apply for refund next year. So that sounds like it means I am definitely going to be on Emergency Tax?

It's been a fair while ago since I would have been on Emergency Tax with my very first job so apologies for all the questions. But how long will I be on Emergency Tax? Is it just for a couple of weeks and it'll right itself soon enough and I'll be on a standard rate of tax then? Or does Emergency Tax last for a whole employment duration, and then the next consecutive job (fingers crossed lol! ) will automatically be placed on a standard Tax-Band then?

Basically is it based on job-to-job basis even if a person has been on a Jobseeker's Payment and this gap has no bearing on anything, or, does the Gap of being on Jobseeker's automatically default the first new subsequent job to revert back to starting off a fresh new clean taxable employment history as such, with Emergency Tax being put to use?

relax carry on

As its nearly the end of the tax year, a tax credit cert cannot issue from Revenue to your employer so they can tax you correctly. You will be on the emergency basis until the end of the tax year 31/12/12. Depending on the information provided to your employer it could be 41% on all your income until the end of the year or maybe nothing at all.

See the link below for a explanation of the emergency basis.

Make sure either you or your employer register your employment anyway so they can tax you correctly from Jan 2013.
