Estimate your Income Tax for the current year

Use this service to estimate how much Income Tax and National Insurance you should pay for the current tax year (6 April 2024 to 5 April 2025).

This service is for employees who pay tax and National Insurance each month through their employer.

It tells you what your take-home pay will be after: 

• paying tax 

• making any pension contributions 

• making any student loan repayments

If you’re registered for Self Assessment, the Self Assessment tax calculator can help you estimate your tax bill.

You may be able to claim a refund if you’ve paid too much tax.

Before you start

You can also use the HMRC app to estimate how much Income Tax you should pay for the current year.

You cannot get an estimate from this service if your only income is from state benefits, such as State Pension.

If you have more than one job, use the calculator once for each job.

There are different ways to:

• check your Income Tax payments for the current year
• check how much you paid last year (6 April 2023 to 5 April 2024)
• estimate how much you should have paid in a previous year

You can check you’ve paid the right tax by contacting HMRC or by getting help from an accountant.
