How does the Tax Refund Calculator work?
The main figures used to calculate a refund are:
1. The tax free personal allowance for the tax year. This means you only pay tax on earnings over the tax free allowance.
2. Any other income under PAYE for example from a pension.
3. Depending on how much you earn you can pay tax at different rates. The rates are currently 20%, 40%, and 45%.
4. Your tax code which can vary depending on different factors. If it’s wrong you can overpay or underpay tax. You can find out more about tax codes in our tax code guide.
