If you went on maternity leave towards the beginning ish of the tax year, did you get tax back at the end of the financial year?
I will be paid over the £12500 allowance during the 52week I will be off but I’m wondering if I will get any tax back next year as I start Mat leave in May.
Yes if you’ve overpaid tax due to Mat leave you’ll get it back. I went on Mat leave feb to feb and have had several pay slips in that time which include tax refunds. A couple of hundred pounds here and there. But it’s a very welcome addition on mat leave!
Yep I got it back
@Elizabeth that’s great, honestly! It definitely is.
@Jana me too, I will be in a similar situation next year with nothing in the last 3months
