Holiday jobs

If you only work during the holidays, and you expect to earn no more than your personal allowance in the tax year ending 5 April, just ask your employer for a Form P38(S). Fill this in and you won't have any tax taken out of your wages.

If you already have a part-time job during term time, you won't be able to use this form just for your holiday job. You will already be 'on the system', so your employer will take care of the paperwork to make sure you don't pay too much tax.
