I have been issued a P45 from my employer that has the wrong date that I finished on it. Its 8 weeks after I finished and my employer refuses to change as it is alot of work and will cost them money to do so. This will stop me getting JB for another 6 weeks. I left the job, i was not fired.

Is there anyone outside the company, maybe a department in SW that I can talk to about getting it changed? I'm really upset about this
 
and as you have left work voluntarily, you may not get JB for 9 weeks after leaving work.
 
Get a letter from them (or if relevant their payroll dept) confirming your actual finish date.
 
Is it simply wrong or have they included paid leave accrued?

Yes, it is simply wrong and no paid leave accrued

and as you have left work voluntarily, you may not get JB for 9 weeks after leaving work.

I understand that hence I should be able to apply for JB next week but can't for a further 6 weeks because of their error on my current P45.

I have everything from then in writing, I kept phone calls to a minimum so presenting copies of the emails is not a problem.
 


Why did you not apply for JB from fist day of unemployment? It is not a 'gvien' that you would not be paid for the first 9 weeks. They decide whether you left for good reasons.
 
Can that P45 not just be marked void and a new P45 issued? How is it going to cost them a lot of money?
 

Just say you have not got your P45?
 
Or just explain the situation to SW? Especially if you have other documentary evidence to support your story.
