Hello When on the unpaid part of maternity leave (last 13 weeks) what happens to your NI Calculations on your return to work. When I was on maternity leave, on my return my employer manually changed my NI So that I paid NI on that months gross pay. Essentially on a year to date basis I’ve missed out on my NI allowances for the months I wasn’t paid so at the end of the year I have overpaid NI. I did not think it was fair being penalised whilst on maternity and not receiving cumulative NI allowance. Please advise. Thanks should I have received the NI allowance Essentially
