I received this morning four 'simple assessment tax calculation (PA302)' documents for the tax years going back to 2018-2019.
They inform me I've underpaid and for the last three years, the debt will be (was) rolled over into the next year. However, for the year 2018-2019 I have to pay them by mid February 2023. Reading the small print in the explanatory notes, it seems I can't pay online and have to post them a cheque.
I've always been PAYE and never had to fill a tax form and this seems strange to me. Is it correct?

Gets a bit messy with pensions from different sources which is fairly common. TBH I don't know whether I strictly need to do a tax return, I just do them, and I always seem to get a bit back.
You know that if you have a non-tax-paying spouse you can get a bit of his/her allowance transferred to you? Not sure if that triggers a return. I don't think it should.

No chance, her pension's better than mine.

Might as well, as once you've worked out whether or not you need to, the job is almost done.

I am somewhat surprised that they have gone back to 2018/19.
In doing my own tax return a couple of days ago for 2021/22 it is clear they have already received details of income and tax already deducted from the four different pension schemes I am fortunate enough to benefit from.
I would be inclined to check their figures carefully before payment and make sure their calculations align with your understanding of income and tax already paid.
