Paying Tax?

[Hitman]

Hey, I'm confused so maybe one of you will know more about this than me. Basically, I'm 16 and working online. The amount I'll receive per month could be £X to £XXXX. Let's assume it's £1000. Would I need to pay tax (I'm guessing a big fat YES YES YES), if so how much and how? This money would arrive by cheque or PayPal. The money comes from the USA.

Any help would be appreciated, I have no idea how it works.

there's a threshold where you get so much money tax free (i think its about £10k a year) then you have to pay tax after that.
