AVC's and Income tax

Posts: 47 Forumite


My Husband is 55 yrs old and would like to retire in 2 years time.
We are about to pay off our mortgage with a lump sum that I have recently received due to ill health retirement.
We will consequently have £400 spare each month to put into savings.
My husband pays 40% income tax, with a salary of £42,000.
If he chooses to put the £400 into in house AVC's, paying direct from his salary, would this reduce his income tax to 22%?
