Are you aware of the impact that new tax allowances could have on your retirement?
Avon Pension Fund is working with Affinity Connect to help our members plan for a positive retirement. The new online course ‘Effective tax planning for high earners’ offers members an overview of the tax allowances and how they could be affected.
About the tax allowances
- The Annual Allowance Limit for a defined benefit scheme like the LGPS is a measurement of the growth of the pension benefits, not the total annual contributions paid. This can be impacted by a large pay increase in conjunction with significant scheme membership.
- The new Lump Sum Allowance/Lump Sum Death Benefit Allowance is the maximum amount of tax-free lump sum and death benefit lump sum that can be paid in respect of someone’s pension benefits.
You may be impacted by these changes, and it is important that you understand the tax allowances and what action you may need to take.
The free online course will cover:
- The key tax-relief benefits when funding pensions
- The Annual Allowance
- When this allowance can be higher or lower
- The cap on tax-free cash payments
- Next steps
