Taxes. I've started a new job this year. For my first payslip in this new job, my tax code was 1250L. For the following 4 payslips, it was 1228L; for the final 2, it's been 779L.

As I understand, I should have an annual tax free allowance of £12,500. I think that means my code should stay constant. Could somebody help me understand why it's changed/been reduced?

Have you had a company car or any other taxable benefits, in this job or your previous job? Or are you/have you been on the higher tax band at any point?

Ask your employer if they know why your tax code has changed.

And try this service from HMRC, not sure how much it will tell you.
https://www.gov.uk/check-income-tax-current-year

The usual reason that your tax code would be reduced is if you've underpaid tax at some point in the past and HMRC is clawing it back, or you've got another source of income somewhere which isn't being taxed at the source. No idea why it would keep changing like you say though, you'd have to ask the people who control that.

Well did you start before the end of the 2018-2019 tax year? Were you working before this job in that year?
