Claiming higher rate relief

My current pension payments are taxed 'at source' rather than a net pay arrangement. If I move jobs for one with a salary that takes me over the higher rate band, can I claim the additional relief back on this. I would assume yes, but wanted to confirm this?

    Yes, if it's a RAS scheme where contributions are taken after tax, and basic rate relief is claimed by the scheme, then you can claim higher rate relief from HMRC.
