  • Re:Tax on state pension and work pensions in the first year of retirement

    Hi andyb7777 Beecham,
    If you are now in receipt of a personal pension but not a state pension then there should not be a deduction for state pension in your code. To review this you will need to contact HMRCIncome Tax: general enquiries.
    Thank you.
  • Re:Pension contributions being taxed on self assessment?

    Hi Gavin,
    If the pension contributions are taken from your wage before the tax is calculated then this will be taken into account on your P60 which will show the taxable pay.
    Thank you.
  • Re:New job and tax code

    Hi Sarah Housley,
    To give you the best advice here, we would need to review your record, employments and codes.
    Please contact us by webchat or phone via Income Tax: general enquiries.
    Thank you.

  • Re:Working tax credit and Pension

    Hi 
    If both of you are currently working your award will include 2 elements for WTC.
    Working Tax Credit can only be paid to the nominated payee.
    If one person stops working you must notify the Tax Credit Office straightaway. If the person leaving work is the nominated payee for WTC, this can be changed to the partner, providing that the partner meets the eligibility criteria for WTC. Information on eligibility can be found  here Working Tax Credit: Eligibility - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)
    For information about making changes please go to Manage your tax credits - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)
    Thank you.

     
  • Re:Employer National Insurance contribution for a Foreign company

    Hi Edmond Tse,
    Unfortunately this is not something we can discuss via the forum, you will need to either write in for a liability decision or set up a direct payers scheme.
    All information can be found at the www.gov.uk website.  
    Thank you.
  • Re:U1 Form

    Hi invj2,
    Thank you for your enquiry.
    The current timescale for an online U1 application is 1 week.
    The department who process these applications are currently working on applications received on 03/04/2024. If your online status shows ‘completed’, this would indicate that your application has been processed. It usually takes up to 4 weeks for this to arrive in the post.  However, without checking your personal records, I am unable to confirm if and when your U1 was issued. You can check this by speaking to an advisor on the National Insurance helpline.
    The number to call is 0300 200 3500, or +44 (0) 191 203 7010 if calling from abroad.
    Lines are open Monday to Friday from 8am to 6pm.
    Alternatively, you can use the webchat facility, which can be found here - National Insurance: general enquiries - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk) Please choose the option ‘Ask HMRC online’.
    This facility is available Monday to Friday, from 8am to 6pm.
    Thank you.
