    Hi,
    My wife finished up her employment in the first few days of December.
    Her manager has confirmed in an email and by phone that she is owed roughly a weeks pay and her P.45.

    So far, both have failed to materialise despite a couple of phone calls.
    He now won't answer her calls or has someone take a message everytime she rings.

    What options do I have besides calling into the office and refusing to move until she gets what she is owed and her P.45.
    Thanks,

    Does he have the money?

    If so, I would just send him an e-mail saying you will drop by the office on Thursday morning to collect the final pay and P45.

    I worked credit control for a while and this always freaked out company owners. They hate creditors showing up at their office.

    If you haven't received the money by Wednesday evening, show up at the office. Make a fuss.

    Didn't p45's get scrapped on the 1st of Jan, you don't get one or a p60.

    You have no options: your wife's employer should not even discuss the matter with you.

    Your wife has the options.

    The P45 is irrelevant now as it's a new tax year unless she commenced a new employment in December.

    You're still entitled to a P45 or P60 for the 2018 tax year. You won't get either for 2019.

    You'll need a P45 or P60 if you're filing taxes online.

    I'd send a final demand letter (by registered post) outlining how much is owed and a date to make payment by. Outline the contractual details around payment, and when its due (if its in your wife's contract) and advise them that they are in breach of contract. Finally, advise that failure to pay by the date advised will lead to her instructing solicitor to take them to court for said breach of contract.

    P60s wouldnt usually be available until late Jan/early Feb anyways, so don't stress too much on it (but do demand one).

    If you leave your job in December and get a P45, I don't think you'll get a P60 for the same year.

    Possibly correct...but i think (i could be wrong) theres something about being around for the last payroll run of the year that you get one?

    It may stop the OP from making as ass of himself by rocking up to the employer and demanding his wife's money. Especially in a large multinational, he'd get very short shift.

    Only the wife can sort this out, by having a calm discussion with payroll and actually listening to the detail of their answer, even if she dislikes it.

    Possibly she had a negative leave balance so their is no cash in the final pay. If they pay monthly (most multinationals do) she should be getting a P60 (due in February) as well as a final payslip now.
