Hello,
I was hoping someone could help me. On my HMRC online account, they claim I worked for an employer, however I withdrew my application in the middle of going through employment checks, before I was meant to start the role. I never started working with them. The employer is DWP (Department for Work and Pensions). I received a job offer from them, which I initially accepted, however I received a better job offer and during the pre-employment checks with DWP I withdrew my application and never started with them. Now, the HMRC records show that I indeed started working with them and that they paid me two salaries in October and November, from which they deducted tax and NI. I never received this money though, and it's false information. This means all my tax records are now wrong.
I contacted DWP, but because it's such a huge organisation they haven't responded, and so far I've been unable to get any help from them. I also contacted HMRC, but they said I needed to contact DWP to resolve this. Basically, I need those records completely removed from HMRC system as it affects my tax records.
To make matters worse, DWP sent me a P45 stating that I ended employment with them! I never even started it...
Does anyone know what I can do, who to contact? I feel hopeless, as I'm dealing with such a huge organisation as DWP and they just keep ignoring me. How easy is it to remove those records and cancel those claims?
Thank you.
