Hi atush,
Thank you, even if that is a bit goblty goop for me right now :-)
So if I should put enough into my pension to go below the £43,0001 threshold?

Will the company provide you with salary sacrifice for the pension contributions - if so then you could persuade them to give you what they save in NI employer/ee contributions too - we do this at work. ITs a nice thing for employees.
How old are you? This will affect how much you should be saving.0 -
