Question

Can i have a job in a supermarket without an NI number?

Answer 1

i don if u can but if the police find they going to take some information from u

Answer 2

Maybe at Cost Cutter but not at Tesco.

It's illegal to work without paying tax. If it is because you haven't had your NI number yet, you just use a temp one . You use:    TN date of birth and your s*x. so say you were female, born on the 26.12.1994 then it would be...

TN 26 12 94 F.

Trust me, I worked at the jobcenter for 6yrs and this is what they give to youngsters. You wil pay basic rate tax on it, but that will come back to you in your deductions when you get your actual number through.

Answer 3

If you are a British citizen you will have a N.I. number. All reputable employers will expect and ask for your number as it is needed to make deductions from your salary.

Answer 4

Only illegal immigrants are permitted to work in the UK without an NI No.

Answer 5

No it stops illegals from working here

Answer 6

You can work in certain environments without an NI number. You or your future employer would have to apply for a young workers work permit from your local council. There are restrictions as to the number of hours you can work in any given day and week, and you are not allowed to work past a certain time of night.

Whether you would be able to get a job in a supermarket is really up to that individual supermarket's policies. Most will not take on workers until they are 16.

Supermarket work is not all its cracked up to be, trust me!

Answer 7

You will need to get an NI number before you can legally start work.

Your local jobcentre will sort it out for you.
