Tax is controlled by HMRC, at Arc we add in your NI number when you start and then your tax code is completed from your onboarding form. Once entered within our payroll system, tax codes are then checked and updated automatically at 1am every day and applied. 

If you believe your tax code to be incorrect, you will need to contact HMRC.

Please note: Arc do not have the money in which you have been taxed. If you have been taxed and this money has been deducted, if you are owed this back. HMRC will then reissue this to you on another pay day- we are unable to know when this may happen.
