My employer's pension scheme is not set up for automatic tax relief at source, and consequently, no tax relief has been applied to my pension contributions. my contributions were made from my net salary (after tax deductions). Will I still benefit from tax relief on workplace pension if I am just a basic rate tax payer? Should I contact HMRC for this? Thank you.

Hi ZQ,
If you pay tax at the basic rate, no relief is due on pension contributions taken after tax via a workplace pension scheme. For more advice, contact us by webchat or phone via Income Tax: general enquiries.
Thank you.
