tax return anyone help

[thered]

anyone help please i lost job last july/aug so i am now a bum

i have earnt altogether with my benefit a paltry ?11507 for the last tax year

i paid when i was working ?1320.20 in tax

the DSS have said im not entitled to anything but i think they are wrong

i used an online calculator which has told me i should get around ?400

my tax code is 685L giving me a tax free allowance of ?6859

so if i take this ?6859 from my ?11507

it gives me a taxable income of ?4648 which at 20% income tax is ?929

so why the ~~~~ have i paid ?1320 and they say they dont owe me anything


or am i missing something?

i asked me mother who funnily enough works in the tax ofice she said that the dole shud give me the money its nothing to do with them and if they dont i then need to contact the tax office

i would suggest contacting the tax office first it looks as if you've paid too much tax you may get a rebate the dole don't deal with tax, your dole is based on n.i. contributions if you were paying them when employed you should be entitled to benefits don't ring the benefits office make an appointment and set your case out to them if you ring them more often than not they'll fob you off good luck

did you include N.I. contributions in your deductions m8....or maybe you were in the 40% bracket for some earned and the tax mans not recalculated the adjustment back to 20%

my tax allowance is the same m8 . its added to the tax amount and not deducted from the gross .. it looks like it is on your tax form ... l applied for my daughters student finance and was told they dont deduct the allowance for the top line of your gross m8

surely taxable pay is taxable pay and has nothing to do with ni contributions anyway

how much wages do you need to earn for the 40% bracket i dont think i earned anywhere near enough for that i was on ?30,000 a year

i was told when i asked about a tax rebate last year that the dole will sort it out at the end of the year as the benefit is taxable
