Reducing payments on account.

I'd be grateful for advice on this.

I've made personal pension contributions in this tax year that should reduce my overall tax bill by about £2000, and I'd like to reduce my payments on account.

However, the options available on the SA website don't seem to fit this particular purpose ( as below, taken from the website)

Step 2 - Please state reason helpIcon.gif
Reason for reduce payment: *
  • Please select an option below
  • My business profits are down/my business has ceased.
  • Other income has gone down.
  • Tax allowances and reliefs have gone up.
  • Tax deducted at source is more than previous year.


Can anyone advise me on the correct option, or do I have to ring HMRC? Thanks

    I would assume 'Tax allowances and reliefs have gone up', but I'm not totally sure.

    Does the '?' help icon give any more information.

    That is the correct option
