A P60 is an end-of-year certificate containing all your yearly tax-related information. HMRC keeps a record of your earnings, tax and national insurance contributions. Think of your P60 as a receipt given to you by HMRC for the tax they have taken.
Your P60 will be available to view and download via ESR at the end of every financial year (by 31 May).
If you have had no earnings in the tax year, you will not receive a P60.
Please follow the steps in this article to view your P60 via ESR.
If you’ve changed jobs during the tax year, you will only receive a P60 from your current employer. Your former employer should have issued you with a P45 when you left them. A P45 tracks your earnings and tax status from the beginning of the tax year to when left that employer. For more information on P45s, please visit the gov.uk website.
