Common questions

Is this an official HMRC calculation?

No. It is an estimate for planning. Always check figures against HMRC or your payslip before making decisions.

Which tax year does it use?

The rates and thresholds are shown alongside the result so you can confirm what is being applied.

Does it handle Scottish rates?

Scottish income tax bands differ. Check which band set is displayed before relying on the figure.
