How are UK company cars and employee benefits taxed?
I am giving employees benefits in the UK, including maybe a company car. Please explain why benefits are not just payroll extras and what employers need to report.
Why is the UK's starter checklist more than a payroll formality when a new employee does not have a P45?
New starters in the UK often hear that the starter checklist is just a replacement form when a P45 is missing. Please explain why it matters more than that, why the answers affect the first tax code and student-loan treatment, and why the document is really part of getting the first payslip right.

Employees in the UK often treat the P60 as something to file away until a mortgage broker asks for it. Please explain why the document matters more than that, why HMRC ties it to being employed on 5 April, and why one P60 does not necessarily tell the whole story if you had more than one job.
