I used the cycle to work scheme this year and pay pension contributions pre-tax. Is the income I declare for SAT purposes the income before cycle to work and pension are deducted or the income after they are deducted?

Hi OrlaL,
If, by SAT, you are referring to Self Assessment Tax, then you do not need to declare either Cycle to Work or pre-tax pension payments on your tax return, as both constitute salary sacrifice.
If SAT refers to something else, please confirm this.
Thank you.

Thank you. SAT is indeed Self Assessment Tax. My question was really when I am asked to declare my income from employment on my SAT form, do I indicate there the amount I earned before or after Cycle to Work (or any other salary sacrifice contributions) are taken from my payslip? In other words, which is my taxable income?

Hi 
You would enter the figures provided on your P60 from your employer.
They will have deducted any salary sacrifice etc already, leaving the taxable amount and the tax paid.
Thank you.
