Well, yesterday’s budget is a surprise. Anyone can put 10k gross into their pension. And the LTA is gone. Wow. This is of course a total gift for billionaires – for anyone earning over 100k really – and tax top-ups and self-assessment credits could cost HMRC a lot. But from my perspective I can stop worrying about whether I’ll go over the LTA at age 60, and stop calculating carefully for BCE5A at age 75, and start editing this website! Maybe wait a couple of weeks to be sure it’s really true, and save the deleted pages for when the LTA is reintroduced.
