    AFAIK you can split your tax credits between the two in whatever ratio you want.

    If you work one or 10 jobs you still have the same amount of Tax credits, its up to you to choose how best to divide them. If one of the jobs is part-time or temporary, it makes sense to have fewer tax credits asociated with it than your higher paid post.
    If you ring your Tax office they will sort out your credits in the way that suits you best.


    Hope this helps

    It would be treated the same if you were earning more in the first job and therefore more likely to attract tax.

    If I were you, I wouldn't split the credits - assign them all to the higher paid job and sort it out at the end of the year. A lot less hassle. Too much bull going around with split tax credits.
