Day two of Pension Awareness Week! So, yesterday we explained why expert help can power up your pension. Today we share a real life case study detailing how our retirement experts helped Arsalan avoid paying too much tax on his retirement savings. This is especially important if you’re thinking of taking any of your retirement savings as cash.
As he had a yearly income of around £20,000 from his other pensions, taking it all at once would have pushed him up into a higher-rate tax bracket.
Our friendly retirement experts helped Arsalan save £3,000 in tax with a simple tip: taking his cash over two tax years instead of one.
This meant his total income for each tax year stayed within the basic rate tax bracket instead of going into a higher one. Read the full case study below:
