I have three final salary pensions with various companies, numbers I not know but all with good companies/schemes so have left with as I did not pay into these schemes.
DH has just passed away. Will be receiving widows pension from his pension but don't no what it will be yet.
Wondered what would be my best option as not currently contributing to pension scheme through current job?
Could I pay in a lump sum into pension scheme? current salary approx £8900 per annum.
Thanks

You will need to wait to see what you get first before you can start making decisions like this.
When it comes to it, if pension is the best option, and it may not be, then you can pay upto £8900 into the pension and get tax relief.I am an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA).
