Very shortly, we’ll be emailing you a P60 for the 2015/16 tax year. It seems like a good time for a quick reminder of why we send P60s and what information it includes.

What is a P60?

A P60 is a certificate that employers must send to each of their employees at the end of every tax year.

What can I expect from my P60?

Your P60 shows your gross salary and how much tax and National Insurance you paid in the last tax year. When you’re looking at the figures, keep in mind that your gross salary doesn’t include the expenses you claimed.

Your P60 comes in handy when you’re asked to prove your annual income. For example, if you’re applying for tax credits or completing a tax return.

It also includes a note of your payroll number.

What should I do with my P60?

Keep it safe! Even if you don’t need it straight away, you might find yourself looking for it one day. We recommend you file the email and print a copy if you want one for your records.
