Higher Rate Taxpayers, whose employer is using NEST as the pension provider, could be missing out on Higher Rate Tax Relief.
Unlike other pension providers, NEST uses ‘relief at source’, which means they claim tax relief back from HM Revenue Customs (HMRC) on behalf of an eligible worker after contributions are paid to them, whereas some pension schemes use a net-pay approach for tax relief, where the employer deducts contributions from a worker’s salary before calculating income tax on the reduced amount.
In order for the relief to be calculated correctly for Higher Rate Taxpayers there needs to be a tax code adjustment or the submission of a tax return. There is also a limit on the level of contributions that can be made to benefit from the relief.
