Pension Contributions

Hi. I have no tax to pay this year, however do I need to fill in a self assessment tax return to declare my pension contributions ? thank you

Hi Puddle Splasht,
You can declare your pension contributions without completing a return - contact us by webchat or phone via Income Tax: general enquiries (though you may need to write in with evidence if claiming relief on contributions over £10,000).
Thank you.

Ok but tax relief is already claimed on my behalf

Tax relief is already given to me by my pension provider

Hi Puddle Splash,
If the pension contributions are taken from your gross wage then releif would already be given.
If from your net wage then you can claim the additional relief if you are a higher rate tax payer.
If you are not sure if you need to file a Self Assessment you can check if you meet the criteria here:

Thank you,
