Opt-out of self assessment if income after pension contributions is <£100k?
Hello HMRC Team, In previous years I have completed self-assessments due to my taxable income being >£100k. In the most recent year, I contributed heavily to pension which brings my taxable income below £100k. Can I therefore opt out of self assessment? This is unclear in the 'check-if-you-need-tax-return' page as it simply asks whether you earn over £100k total income, and doesn't mention pension contributions being deducted from this. Thanks!
