** Disclaimer when submitting a Tax claim for a calendar year, you will only receive a Refund/ Money if you have overpaid tax in that calendar year. If you have underpaid tax, you could potentially owe money. (Generally, this won’t happen, or if it does the sum of money should be small. **
*This is advice and not instruction it is documented with the intent to help people understand more about the process. Individuals are responsible for completing their own tax reviews. *

Review you PAYE Income for the calendar year. (This should be populated already from the P60 which your employer has completed.)
Declare your Non-PAYE Income. To explain what this includes it is essentially income you have received that wasn’t from working in a job you are paid through payroll.
Confirm/ Submit your Tax Credits/ Tax Reliefs.
