Hi, I work part time 15 hours per week & have just taken a second job of 12.5 hours per week for another company. My p45 is with my first employer so the question is, What happens with my second job, do I need a P46? & will I pay tax even though I won't be earning enough with the 2 jobs together? Just a bit confused. Thanks

Your second employer could use a ‘Starter Checklist’ to collect the information, or may collect it another way.

A Starter Checklist has questions about any other jobs, benefits or student loans you have. It helps your employer work out your correct tax code before your first payday.

Ok Zacs thanks
As Z-M states, in any situation where a P45 isn't available (irrespective of the reason), employers are now obliged to use the 'Starter Checklist':

P46 forms have been abolished.

Your new employer will probably initially allocate you to a temporary tax code, such as '0T', resulting in you having 20% of your pay deducted in Income Tax. However you'll get that back as soon as HMRC has advised the employer of the correct code to use.
