    Going anon for this one, sorry. Was fired three weeks ago from my sales job, knew it was on the cards and had been applying away a few weeks beforehand. Have been to two third round interviews and one first round with 3 different companies since. On my C.V when I began looking I mentioned I was looking to move on and I understand that from now on will have to change my details to reflect situation on what happened with previous employer. My problem - my P45 will show the date I left was after the two third round interviews, where I said I was still in the job.

    If I get offered and accept (these are two big companies) will I be fired again? Can I post P45 to my tax office myself? And yes I understand what I did was wrong, I just didn't think the timeframe would be this long to get a decision

    Can someone explain this please.

    I left a job just before Xmas and have still not receiced a P45 from the employer. Do I no longer require one ? I heard something about all companies have to send in P45s from the previous year to revenue (even if they fail to give one to the employee) every february along with a bunch of other stuff. Is this correct ?

    The emplyorer must give you a Form P45 and you should as them for it.

    It is normally given with your final payslip.

    If you dont recieve it you can apply for one.

    In any event they will need to supply the info to the revenue by Feb 15 with the annual Emplyers P35.

    I understand and will be persuing it but going back to what was already said do I require one if for instance I start a job next week as its a new tax year as a poster pointed out above ?

    You can apply for your tax credit certificate from your local tax office using form 12a from this link - you will need your new emplyers registered employer number to do so, these are the employer paye details on the first page Section C.

    If you are having difficulty and think your tax or prsi payments have not been made you should contact the revenue or Dept or Social Welfare.

    OP - I presume you got laid off or let go from your previous job due to the economic situation at present.

    Not fired (as you have mentioned) because you were a lazy sod and could not make a sale even if your life depended on it. Or you stole stock or whatever.

    there is a big difference

    STOP TALKING YOURSELF DOWN. The company you worked for for could not afford to keep you employed due to the

    Ah, not quite. They were let go in mid-November, meaning that they would have been unemployed for 6 weeks of the year. If they had been paying tax on the basis of 12 months, it could mean that they are due a refund.

    Anyway, you are legally entitled to a copy of your P45. Make sure you get it.

    Tell your new employer that your old job have not yet given you your P45 and ring the tax office, give them your new company's registration number and they will send out a tax credit form to both you and your new employer. There's nothing to worry about.
