    Yes my employer makes the auto-enrolment contributions and so do I (NEST).
    I am aware these both count towards the AA (including the automatic 20% tax relief - relief at source amounts) as does the portion of the saved 3.5% erNI passed to my SIPP provider by my employer (Salary Sacrifice amounts). 
    I'm not sure if I'm misunderstanding. Did you and you employer pay into Nest in 2023/4 as well as into your SIPP, or was Nest only previous years?
