Why would a BR tax code be used for an employee?

• If they are a basic rate tax payer

• If they have moved jobs mid year and have been assigned an emergency tax code

• If they get benefits in kind

Answer explanation

The tax code BR is an

instruction to the employer to deduct basic-rate tax on all the employee’s

earnings without taking off the personal allowance. This often happens

when someone starts work for the first time or starts a new job, and it is a

temporary measure until HMRC can sort out the correct tax code. There’s

no need to panic, though, as once the correct tax code is sorted out, any

overpaid tax is refunded.
