    Hi @sean22, welcome to the community. If you're employed by a company, you wouldn't usually need to do anything with your taxes.

    If you're self employed and will no longer be working, you may need to tell HMRC that you won't be filing any more tax returns and have ceased your business. There's some information about ending self-employment here and a link to log in to the system if you're already registered: https://www.gov.uk/stop-being-self-employed

    I hope that's helpful and I haven't misunderstood your question, but let us know if you were asking for another reason and hopefully we can help ☺️

    I am not self employed. I worked for a firm for 23 years and have now stopped working

    I didn't tell the tax man anything when I got kicked out, I just claimed legacy ESA after my wages were spent. I was only a lowly bus driver at the time, so maybe that is different?
