  • Not sure if I asked before but can you get your employer to fund and then clawback by way of salary sacrifice? That way you save the tax.

    Just popping on to update my signature, not that there is much doing really.

    The company I work for is not really in a position to fund at the moment. We are clinging on by our fingernails! It's a good idea though and I will keep it in mind for if things get better and for when study gets more expensive, which I'm sure it will.

  • If they fund and you pay in total, you save the tax with no cost for them.
