Misha says: 28 June 2017 at 18:19 I'm a commission earner. I joined a company in January and I didn't earn any commission from January to 28 February. My previous IRP5 shows me working at that previous company for 10 months. Do I need an IRP5 with zero income on it for the 2 months at the new company? Would anything need to be submitted to show that I was employed for the 10 months at the first company and 2 months at the present company = the full 12 Months? Also, does the new company have to upload anything so that when I do my eFiling it knows that I was employed for 12 months? |

However, the tax return does have a section which asks if you were unemployed for any time in the year and then you are supposed to enter the unemployment dates and your IRP5 information should back up these dates. Therefore, it would be better to have an IRP5 reflecting you were employed for 2 months even if income was nil. And then you can indicate that you worked for the full tax year and will have IRP5s to prove this. |
