because the previous company - i.e. your Ltd - had happily been paying you with the wrong code and had never queried it.
Why is it not the responsibility of your previous company to supply the correct information to the umbrella?
Why did the previous company - i.e. your Ltd - not check your tax code was correct?Comment

Originally posted by BobbyCrane View PostLet me expand then. I was outside IR35 before through the Ltd co, therefore able to take salary at a lower level and take dividends taxed through self assessment. I could put business accommodation and other costs through the business and reduce the overall personal taxation while also paying corp tax. So, for the personal income a BR tax code was appropriate to the levels at the time.
Unless you are saying your LtdCo had your 1150L tax code and you were drawing a salary from that, and your umbrella as a second job had the BR (which is normal)? Did you continue to pay yourself from yourco while you were also working for the umbrella company? If you stopped working for YourCo did you (or SJD) provide a P45 to give to Contractor Umbrella to transfer your allowance to that jobOriginally posted by Stevie Wonder BoyI can't see any way to do it can you please advise?
I want my account deleted and all of my information removed, I want to invoke my right to be forgotten.Comment

Unless there's a big lump of story you're not telling us, a BR tax code is not normal, it is not correct when trying as a Ltd - unless you're not telling us something.
A normal tax code will be xxxxL
e.g. 1250L is the normal code for 2019/20
1185L was the normal code for 2018/19
1150L for 2017/18
1100L for 2016/17…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

I was paid by my Ltd co until Mar 18 on 1150L.
Through self assessment, I paid all tax that was due for 2017/18, already fully paid through payments on account and through PAYE by my Ltd co and through CU. There is nothing wrong with my 2017/18 tax.
CU took the BR code forward and never adjusted for the amount of income passing through their books. That’s my challenge here, that they should have known that and advised me accordingly.Comment

So you never informed CU that your circumstances had changed after you stopped paying yourself in Mar 18?Originally posted by Stevie Wonder BoyI can't see any way to do it can you please advise?

I want to just draw everyone’s attention that we have two separate issues here.
- BC’s current problem with his current emergency tax code - thread
- BC’s potential problem with his old legacy tax code - another thread?
I don’t want to overwhelm him with tax problems, can we stick to fixing the first one i this thread?"I can put any old tat in my sig, put quotes around it and attribute to someone of whom I've heard, to make it sound true."
