We phoned TCO on behalf of client on instructions of the latter to notify TCO of a "change of circumstances" being a new employment at more than 30 hours per week. We were asked for the PAYE reference and name and address of employer, at this time unknown to us. We were advised by TCO that without this information they could not accept our notification.
I could not find anything in the TC regs which specified this requirement (or which delegated to TCO the authority to specify it). Any takers?
With kind regards
Clint Westwood.

re: PAYE office information
Hello Clint,
Im not too sure whether where it is written. But they use the information to verify the payroll matches the information you provide. Its another method of fraud prevention.

Yep
My wife deals with them when claiming tax credits.
Everytime I change jobs she asks me for the PAYE reference number as they always ask her as well as name and addres of employer.
I have never really thought about though if I am honest.
